Quick Overview
npm install -g create-quip-app
create-quip-app my-app
create-quip-app my-app will create a directory called my-app inside the current folder.
Inside that directory, it will generate the initial project structure and install the transitive dependencies:
my-app
├── package.json
├── node_modules
├── webpack.config.js
├── app
│ └── manifest.json
└── src
└── App.less
└── App.jsx
└── root.jsx
Getting Started
Follow the Getting Started Guide to start creating your own live app.
Publishing
During the beta period, only developers of your app will be able to insert the app. To add a developer, go to the Quip Dev Portal. To insert the live app in a Quip document, type @ followed by the app name.
Others can view and interact with the app, but they won't be able to create new instances of it yet.
