## Requirements
|
|
|
|
Doks uses npm to centralize dependency management, making it [easy to update]({{< relref "how-to-update" >}}) resources, build tooling, plugins, and build scripts:
|
|
|
|
- Download and install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) (it includes npm) for your platform.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Create a new site, change directories, install dependencies, and start development server.

|
|
|
