How to Install Extensions

This guide explains what are extensions and how to use them in your Scaffold-Stylus project.

What are Extensions?​

Extensions are modular add-ons for Scaffold-Stylus that provide additional functionality or serve as examples for specific features.

Info

Extensions can only be installed during the initial setup of a new Scaffold-Stylus project.

They offer several benefits:

  • Seamless integration with the base Scaffold-Stylus project
  • Quick addition of new features, pages, contracts, or components at project creation
  • Compatibility with Scaffold-Stylus core updates and improvements

Extensions are compact packages containing specific code (such as a smart contract or UI component) that automatically integrate with the latest version of Scaffold-Stylus when initializing a new project via npx. They are starting points for your project, not finished products.

Installing Extensions​

To install an extension when creating a new Scaffold-Stylus project, run:

npx create-stylus@latest -e {extension-name}

E.g.: npx create-stylus@latest -e erc20

Available Extensions​

You can find a complete list of available extensions on scaffold-stylus extensions.
