Hi,
I’m trying to get a dev environment up and running with these tools installed. Node and vue are available in the flox installer, but the other two npm packages aren’t. I’m not sure how to proceed from here. Just installing it with npm and trying to run it doesn’t seem to work.
Seems like I got it up and running by using npm install without any arguments after doing npm install vuetify and vite and then running npm run dev.
I’m not sure how it’s working, and why this didn’t seem to work using other tools like devbox
It’s pretty common (especially with node) to not find node dependencies in Flox. This is because upstream in Nixpkgs (where Flox’s catalog is based from) there are partial results. Flox makes it easy to bring your package manager of choice (such as npm
) and use Flox to 1/ provide it at the right version and 2/ provide surrounding OS dependencies like, for example, mkcert
for node projects.
