Develop Your Project

Create a simple "Hello world!" HTML file and use NGINX Open Source to serve it to the Web.

1. In .flinkwerk/config.yaml, add the following lines to create your project on top of NGINX. In this example, NGINX is provisioned through the Bitnami NGINX Helm chart:

   .flinkwerk/config.yml

   from:
     type: helm
     sku: bitnami/nginx
     repository: "https://charts.bitnami.com/nginx"

   This configuration enables Flinkwerk to later automatically deliver your HTML file within the NGINX instance deployed by the open-source Helm Chart.

2. Add the following Dockerfile in your project root:

   Dockerfile

   FROM bitnami/nginx
   COPY app /app

3. Develop and add your custom code to the new app/ folder in your project root. Simply create a folder named app and then add a file called index.html in this folder containing this content:

   app/index.html

   <h1>Hello world!</h1>

4. Add and commit this file to your local project Git repository, which the previous flinkwerk init command automatically created for you, with this command:

   git commit -am "Flinkwerk quickstart"
