Configure access to Chord's private Github repositories 
In order to install the necessary Chord packages, follow the guide below on how to configure your package manager to access Chord's packages.
﻿npm Access for @chordcommerce Packages﻿ 
Create a new site 
Click the "Use this template" button on the starter Github repository to create a new Github repository in your account with the same files and folders, or fork the repo. Then clone your new repo onto your local machine:
Shell
# with git
git clone [email protected]:<YOUR ACCOUNT>/nextjs-starter-autonomy.git
# or with the GitHub CLI
gh repo clone <YOUR ACCOUNT>/nextjs-starter-autonomy
# with git
git clone git@github.com:<YOUR ACCOUNT>/nextjs-starter-autonomy.git
# or with the GitHub CLI
gh repo clone <YOUR ACCOUNT>/nextjs-starter-autonomy
﻿
Configure your site's environment
Shell
cp .env.example .env
cp .env.example .env
﻿
You'll need to populate this .env file with some environment variables, including your Chord account and CMS credentials. Talk to the Chord team to get these.
Start your development server 
Install project dependencies:
yarn
Shell
yarn install
yarn install
﻿
After installation is complete, start the development server:
yarn
Shell
npm run dev     # starts site at http://localhost:3000
npm run dev     # starts site at http://localhost:3000
﻿
You can see your new site at http://localhost:3000. Hot reload is enabled by default.
That's it! You're off and running.  ✨
