Quick Start
git clone https://github.com/yournextstore/yournextstore.gitcd yournextstore && bun installcp .env.example .env.local # Add your YNS_API_KEY from https://yns.store/manage/settings/apibun dev
Open localhost:3000 — your store is running.
Why AI Tools Work Better Here
| Familiar patterns | Idiomatic Next.js App Router (Server Components, Server Actions, "use cache") — matches what LLMs have seen thousands of times |
| Commerce Kit SDK | Methods like productBrowse() and cartUpsert() have defined input/output shapes. LLMs write correct code when they know the contracts |
| Well-defined domain | Products, variants, carts, checkout — the data models already exist with clear types. No need for the LLM to invent them |
| AGENTS.md | Full project context, SDK examples, Biome rules, and validation checklist — AI agents understand the codebase before writing a single line |
