In order to start building Fig apps, you'll need to download .
Currently, Fig is a limited beta. To sign up for the developer preview, please fill out and join our . We're really excited to see what you build. :)
Once you have Fig, you'll need to create the project structure for your Fig app.
Luckily, this is very simple. The minimal project requires no dependencies (besides fig.js
which is included automatically at runtime) and no build process.
fig local sample.html
Debugging your app.
Running your app
fig local path/to/app.html
While testing, it can be useful to add this snippet to your sidebar for quick access.
Run fig home
Press "Add Code Snippet" button
Choose an emoji and a name
Add fig local path/to/app.html
(Advanced) Adding apps to your $FIGPATH
If you want to access your Fig apps without typing out the full path, you can add them to your FIGPATH
- a colon separated list of paths where Fig will check for a matching app.
For instance, if you run fig sample-app
, Fig will check every directory added to your FIGPATH
for...
sample-app.html
sample-app/index.html
You can update your FIGPATH
by adding something likeexport FIGPATH=/User/mschrage/path/to/apps
to your .profile
.
You can open the Safari Web Inspector by right clicking on your app. The Fig API is still maturing, so if you run into unexpected behavior, please let me know at or in the of the Slack community.
