Create Twenty App

NPM version License Join the community on Discord

The official scaffolding CLI for building apps on top of Twenty CRM. Sets up a ready-to-run project with twenty-sdk.

Quick start

npx create-twenty-app@latest my-twenty-app
cd my-twenty-app
yarn twenty dev

The scaffolder will:

  1. Create a new project with TypeScript, linting, tests, and a preconfigured twenty CLI
  2. Start a local Twenty server via Docker (pulls the latest image automatically)
  3. Authenticate with the development API key

Options

Flag Description
--name <name> Set the app name
--display-name <displayName> Set the display name
--description <description> Set the description
--url <url> Twenty workspace URL (default: http://localhost:2020)
--authentication-method <method> oauth or apiKey (default: apiKey for local, oauth for remote)

Documentation

Full documentation is available at docs.twenty.com/developers/extend/apps:

  • Quick Start — scaffold, run a local server, sync your code
  • Concepts — how apps work: entity model, sandboxing, lifecycle
  • Operations — CLI, testing, CI, deploy and publish

Troubleshooting

  • Server not starting: check Docker is running (docker info), then try yarn twenty docker:logs.
  • Auth not working: run yarn twenty remote:add to re-authenticate.
  • Types not generated: ensure yarn twenty dev is running — it auto-generates the typed client.
