Cross-Platform Web Apps

Deploy performant single-page applications optimized for both mobile and desktop browsers.

🚀 Getting Started

1

Install FluidFramework using your package manager: `npm install FluidFramework`

2

Initialize your project workspace or configuration file for FluidFramework.

3
