Creating the scaffold application

Now it is time to create a new folder and start to development our blog application:

  1. Create a folder called chapter-08.
  2. Open your terminal/shell at the chapter-08 folder and type the following command:
    yo keystone
    

    After this command, the keystone.js will trigger a series of questions about the basic configurations of the application; you must answer them, as shown in the following screenshot:
