## 🐰 Introduction Welcome to the preview release of the next major version of Directus. **NOTE:** This is pre-release software and should be treated as such. DO NOT use this in production. Migrations between versions aren't provided, and breaking changes might happen at any release. ## ⚙️ Installation _Directus requires NodeJS 10+_ We've created a little CLI tool you can use to quickly start up a Directus project. You can use it by running: ``` npx create-directus-project my-project ``` or using yarn: ``` yarn create directus-project my-project ``` on the command line. This will create the given directory, setup the configuration, and install the database. ## ✨ Updating To update an existing Directus project, navigate to your project directory and run: ``` npm update ``` ## 🔧 Contributing Please report any and all quirks / issues you come across as [an issue](https://github.com/directus/next/issues/new). Pull requests are more than welcome and always appreciated. Seeing this is in active development, please make sure to reach out a member of the core team in an issue or [on Discord](http://discord.gg/directus) before you start working on a feature or bug to ensure you don't work on the same thing as somebody else :) ## ❤️ Supporting Directus Directus is a GPLv3-licensed open source project with development made possible by support from our core team, contributors, and sponsors.
