Creating a hello world app from a default template

1. First, create a new directory called helloWorld and change the directory to helloWorld:

# Step 1a: Create a new directory for your project
$ mkdir helloWorld
$ cd helloWorld

Kitura CLI will use the current directory's name to create your project and put all the files in the same directory.

1. Next, use the kitura init command to create a new project from the default Kitura template:

# Step 1b: Create helloWorld app using the default Kitura template
$ kitura init

This step not only creates the project by fetching dependencies and setting up the project environment for you but also builds the project right away. It takes Kitura several minutes to fetch dependencies and build the helloWorld project for you:
