I am trying to follow this MS tutorial.

So I install the CLI from the VS code terminal: npm install @azure/static-web-apps-cli

Works.

But following the instructions using "swa init" in the terminal I get this response:

swa : The term 'swa' is not recognized.... etc.

Adding the command to package.json as a script will work, but how do I run it directly from the terminal without adding it to package.json?

CodePudding user response：

npx swa init would pull the swa package and execute it as if it was run from within package.json. You can read more about it on npmjs.com/package/npx

Alternatively, you could have the swa package installed globally with npm i -g @azure/static-web-apps-cli
