# Installing Kree using CLI

## Node.js installation 

Go to [Node.js website](https://nodejs.org/en/) and download it for you operating system.

## CLI installation

Open a new terminal (Command Prompt for Windows) and type in

```bash
npm i create-kree-game -g
```

### What does that do?

* `npm` => the package manager of Node.js ( Node Package Manager)
* `i` => install 
* `create-kree-game` =>  the name of the CLI (Command Line Interface)
* `-g` => install the package global 

1. Install your favorite IDE / Text Editor
2. Download the \*.jar file of Kree in you `downloads` folder. [Download Kree](https://github.com/jabo-bernardo/Kree-Java/releases/)

And your done with the setup!

## How to use the CLI?

1. Open a new terminal window.
2. Go to an empty folder (the name of the folder will be the name of the project)

   To navigate between folders, you can use `cd`, `mkdir`, `cd ..` and `pwd`.
3. Run `create-kree-game` on the current directory.  (answer the prompts by your needs)

That's it! Now open the folder with your IDE and start coding!
