Framework Init and Updating

[wchorski]

I have been building with framework-nextjs-app-directory and was looking to upgrade it's packages, inline with Keystone's framework.

I see now they use pnpm to manage packages and a bit confused on the workspace and catalog namespaces inside the framework's package.json

Before

Before there was no pnpm. The framework's package.json was easily portable over to a local directory where I could run npm i, remove stuff like "@preconstruct/next": "^4.0.0",, and start building

How to initialize a framework?

How would I initialize a framework in my own repo where framework-nextjs-app-directory is the root directory? I understand how to work inside the keystone monorepo to build the app, but I would like to commit to a personal repo my changes.

How to update framework?

Also how would I go about update these packages when Keystone updates the framework?

Interesting questions @wchorski, pnpm catalog: are a maintenance help for us as maintainers, but I can see how that might ruin the example for new users.

At this time I don't have any universal instructions for how to use the examples as starter templates, but maybe that could be an option for using the create-keystone-app package? The configuration your repository really depends on your project.
