To get started with UI Foundations Kit you can open up the downloaded source code for you project and navigate into a root directory.

The project is intentionally built to rely on few external dependencies and no external or 3rd party services, so your set-up time can be easy and painless.

​
Requirements

You’ll need a JavaScript package manager like npm, yarn, pnpm, or bun, any should work, but we use the default: npm in most cases.

Inside the root directory of a project (where you find the package.json file), run the install command:

npm install

​
Edit and preview

To make changes and see them live, run the local server start script with:

npm run dev

This will open a port at a location noted in your terminal or shell, for Vite it’s http://localhost:5173.

From here, you should see the landing page, and be able to open up the code in your favorite editor and begin to make changes.
