Overview

ig new [name] [framework] [type] [theme] creates a new Ignite UI application.

Using the new command, you can create a new jQuery, Angular (including Angular 5) and React application. The new application is created in a directory of the same name. Keep in mind that creating a new application inside an exisitng application is not supported.

Arguments

name

name (alias: -n) default value: app

The name of the application. The application is created inside a directory with the same name.

framework

--framework (alias: -f) default value: "jquery"

Framework to setup project for. The supported frameworks are jQuery, Angular and React.

type

--type (alias: -t)

The available project types depend on the selected framework. Currently, when creating an Angular project, you can select between `ig-ts` and `igx-ts` types (the latter for Angular 5). jQuery and React projects support a single type only - `js` for jQuery and `es6` for React. As those are default project types, you do not need to provide `--type` argument when creating jQuery or React projects.

theme

--theme (alias: -th)

Project theme (depends on project type).
