In the world of decentralized applications (dApps), having the right tools can make all the difference. Welcome to Juno, a blockchain-as-a-service platform that simplifies the development of dApps, similar to how Google Firebase streamlines the development process for web applications. This blog will walk you through getting started with Juno and troubleshoot common issues that may arise along the way.
What is Juno?
Juno is a “blockchainless” platform designed to empower developers by providing a comprehensive toolkit that integrates essential features such as:
- Authentication
- Data and file storage
- Hosting
- Serverless functions
- On-chain analytics through smart contracts
In essence, Juno allows developers to create decentralized projects efficiently, while still maintaining full control over their code and deployments.
Getting Started with Juno
Planning to build a decentralized website, blog, or application? Here’s how you can scaffold your project quickly using Juno’s ready-made templates:
npm create juno@latest
yarn create juno
pnpm create juno
These commands set up your project with the basic structure needed to start building on Juno.
Using Docker for Local Development
For an optimal development experience, you will need to have Docker installed on your machine. Follow the instructions for your operating system:
Note: If you are using a MacBook with M processors, ensure that you are on Docker Desktop version 4.25.0 or later for optimal performance.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Here are a few troubleshooting ideas that may come in handy:
- If you encounter issues while installing Docker, ensure that your OS version is compatible with the latest Docker version.
- For issues with the Juno commands, check if you have npm or Yarn installed correctly on your machine.
- If you’re facing performance issues, particularly on a Mac with M processors, ensure you’re using the appropriate version of Docker Desktop.
