Installation

We utilize Gulp to automate our build flow, allowing for complete automation of our development workflows. Gulp is a powerful toolkit designed to help developers eliminate time-consuming tasks, allowing them to focus on what really matters: building great products. If you're not familiar with Gulp, you can learn more about it here.

Prerequisites

To get started with Attex, please follow the steps below to install and set up all the necessary prerequisites:

  • Node.js - v16x or v18x

    To use our build tools and take full advantage of Attex's customization options, you will need to download and install Node.js. If you do not have Node.js v16.x or v18.x installed already, you can download the package installer from the official website. We recommend that you download the stable version of Node.js (LTS) to ensure the best possible experience.
