First, update you NPLRuntime to latest version and set up environment variables for NPL.
Now, you only need to run the following command:

~ $ cd ~/workspace
~/workspace $ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elvinzeng/nwf/master/nwf_init.sh
~/workspace $ sh ./nwf_init.sh "project-name"  

Then, this script will use parameter "project-name" to create a directoty as project root directory, it will generate the necessary directory structure and the basic file automatically.
tips: you can use git-bash to run script if you are Windows user.

Attention: Since the project auto update script will check the file changes by calculating the file checksum , If the git client is configured to automatically convert the line style will cause the project auto update script be not available. To resolve this issue, configure the git client line style conversion behavior in terminal or git-bash by executing the following command before creating or clone projects.

git config --global core.autocrlf input

First, configure dependencies module of this project.

elvin@elvin-idreamtech ~/workspace/testnwf $ cat dependencies.conf 
preload_controller_mod
helloworld

Then, execute below command to install all dependences module.

~ $ ./nwf_module_manage.sh -I

If you are not familiar with module, you could skip this step and start server directly.

• Linux: sh start.sh
• Windows: run start_win.bat
• Access "http://localhost:8099/ ". "it works!" means web application is start success.
