Setup

Open Beta Documentation Amazon offers this technical documentation as part of a pre-release, open beta. The features described might change as Amazon receives feedback and iterates on the features. For the most current feature information, see the Release Notes.

Pre-requisites

In order to get started with this lab you will need to have the Vega SDK installed on your machine. You can find the instructions on how to do this here.

Creating an app from the template

The Vega SDK contains sample app templates which serve as a good starting point for development.

You can build app using Vega Studio or Vega CLI, however we recommend Vega Studio for this tutorial as it has built in debugging and the app runs with fast refresh by default.

Follow the instructions in Build your first App to create an app using the hello-world template.

Once you have the template app running on the simulator head over to Build a single screen app to start the lab.

Troubleshooting

During the lab, if you are stuck, review the troubleshooting documentation for the Vega SDK.

Debugging

While we recommend using the Vega Studio's debugger if you'd like to see the console.logs you can view them in the Output window.
