Create a new Slate project

Creating a new Slate project is as simple as running a single command. We recommend using either yarn create or npx to create a new Slate project:

yarn create slate-theme my-new-theme

or

npx create-slate-theme my-new-theme

Note: The default Slate theme is generated from Shopify/starter-theme; Shopify's opinionated starting point for developing Shopify themes. However, you're not forced to create a new project with Shopify's own starting point. See custom starter themes for more information on how you can generate a new project from other sources or contributing your own to the community!
