Course Introduction and Orientation

Andrew and Ryan introduce what you'll learn and build in this course.

This course guides devel­op­ers in set­ting up a project from scratch with DDEV, Vite, Tail­wind, and Craft CMS. You can use these steps to build your own boil­er­plate while ful­ly under­stand every choice and its purpose.

In this course, we’ll use the following:

  • DDEV
  • Craft CMS
  • Vite
  • Tail­wind

If you’ve used some­one else’s boil­er­plate set­up, then you know that they often impose deci­sions that you may not under­stand or agree with. I’ve expe­ri­enced this first­hand when a pre-built set­up didn’t adapt well to a new project.

In this course, we’ll cov­er each step to build a basic Could things be done dif­fer­ent­ly? Yes. Did we exclude your pre­ferred method? That’s the point — this set­up is about under­stand­ing, not dic­tat­ing choices.
