Creating an Edge App

When Creating an Edge App

  • Scaffold the new Edge App using the bun create template from inside the edge-apps/ directory:
    bash
    1bun create edge-app-template --no-git <app-name>
    • The app name should follow the kebab-case naming convention.
  • After scaffolding, add an id field to screenly.yml and screenly_qc.yml before running bun run dev.
  • Consult Figma designs before starting implementation.
    • Ensure the Figma MCP server is set up in Claude Code.
    • Use the Figma MCP server to access design specifications, mockups, and UI requirements.
    • Extract design tokens such as colors, spacing, typography, and component specifications from Figma.
    • Ensure the implementation matches the approved designs in Figma before proceeding with development.

Reference Apps

For reference on more complex implementations, consult:

  • QR Code (edge-apps/qr-code/) — simple, low-footprint example
  • Menu Board (edge-apps/menu-board/) — more complex layout
  • CAP Alerting (edge-apps/cap-alerting/) — advanced settings and data fetching

All apps depend on the @screenly/edge-apps library (workspace:../edge-apps-library) and use edge-apps-scripts for tooling.

About the Manifest Files

About index.html

  • Organize HTML code into templates and Web Components as the app grows in complexity.
  • Use HTML content templates first for simpler structures.
  • Consider using Web Components for more complex UI components that require encapsulation and reusability.

About README.md

  • Include instructions on how to create, build, test, format, lint, and deploy the app.
  • Do not add details like the directory structure, as the code frequently changes.
