01The brief
Every new project began with an hour of setup.
The client
QuickShip is our own open-source tool for developers and teams who start new projects often. It is free to use and works on Windows, Mac and Linux.
The problem
Before writing any of the actual product, teams repeat the same setup on every project: configuring the basics, choosing a structure, installing what is needed. It costs 30 to 60 minutes every time.
02What we did
One command, ready to build.
- 01
A guided start
A few questions ask what you are building, a website, a backend or a mobile app, and pick a ready-made starting point to match.
- 02
Nothing left to configure
QuickShip installs everything the project needs, starts its version history and leaves it ready to run.
- 03
Help after day one
Add-ons cover the usual next steps, such as sign-in, a database and putting the project online, and a built-in check confirms the computer is set up correctly.
