Installation

To install x0, follow these steps:

1. Create a “docs” folder in your project directory.

2. Add an “index.js” file inside the “docs” folder.

3. Start a development server by running the following command in your project directory:

   npx create-react-app my-app
   

4. To add more pages, create a new component for each route. For example, create an “about” page:

   import React from 'react';
   
   const About = () => {
     return <h1>About Page</h1>;
   }
   
   export default About;
   

5. The “about” page should now render when navigating to http://localhost:8080/about.
