00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,000
Now to get started,

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,000
I created a brand new project,

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,000
a brand new Next.JS project,

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,000
and I created it just as shown in the last course section.

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,000
I did attach this project here though,

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000
which I created, because I pre-configured it a little bit.

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
I cleaned it up a bit to be precise.

8
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,000
The pages folder is pretty empty here.

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,000
The styles folder only has one styles file

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,000
with some predefined styles I've set up for you,

11
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,000
and therefore I do recommend

12
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,000
that you do download this attached snapshot

13
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,000
so that we're all starting with the same base.

14
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,000
And once you did download it, make sure that for example

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,000
through the integrated terminal here,

16
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:53,000
you then run NPM install to install all the dependencies

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000
that are required for this project.

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
And for this command to succeed, you need to make sure

19
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
that NPM and the other node JS is installed

20
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,000
on your system from node JS dot org, for example.

21
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,000
Now once you did that, we're all ready to go

22
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,000
and now let's dive into file based routing

23
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,000
and understand how that works in Next.JS applications.
