To get started with the Boilerplate template and learn more about the template functionality and usage, head over to the Boilerplate template docs

The Boilerplate template provides:

• Folder structure - A pre-made dapp folder structure with a src (frontend) and contract folders.
• Dapp infrastructure - All required dependencies a dapp needs to start building on the Aptos network.
• Wallet Info implementation - Pre-made WalletInfo components to demonstrate how one can use to read a connected Wallet info.
• Trasnfer APT implementation - Pre-made transfer components to send APT to an address.
• Message board functionality implementation - Pre-made message components to send and read a message on chain

What tools the template uses?

• React framework
• shadcn/ui + tailwind for styling
• Aptos TS SDK
• Aptos Wallet Adapter
• Node based Move commands

What Move commands are available?

The tool utilizes aptos-cli npm package that lets us run Aptos CLI in a Node environment.

Some commands are built-in the template and can be ran as a npm script, for example:

• npm run move:publish - a command to publish the Move contract
• npm run move:test - a command to run Move unit tests
• npm run move:compile - a command to compile the Move contract
• npm run move:upgrade - a command to upgrade the Move contract
• npm run deploy - a command to deploy the dapp to Vercel

For all other available CLI commands, can run npx aptos and see a list of all available commands.
