name	creating-luna-app
description	Use when scaffolding a new standalone CSR app that uses luna (@luna_ui/luna) outside the luna.mbt monorepo — running `npx @luna_ui/luna new`, choosing TSX vs MoonBit, or fixing a broken `--mbt` scaffold (moon build `_bench` import error, or vite `failed to resolve import "mbt:..."`).

creating-luna-app

Overview

@luna_ui/luna ships a scaffolding CLI: npx @luna_ui/luna new <name>. It generates a complete standalone CSR app. TSX is the default and works out of the box. The --mbt (MoonBit) variant scaffolds correctly but does not build as-generated — its printed getting-started steps are wrong on two points. This skill gives the verified working flow for each and the exact fixes for the --mbt breakage.

This is for building an external app that consumes luna. For adding an example inside this monorepo (luna/src/examples/), use the luna skill's references/csr-app-scaffolding.md instead — different layout, different tooling.

Choose the variant

You want…	Command	Status
TypeScript/JSX app (default)	npx @luna_ui/luna new myapp	Works as-generated
MoonBit app	npx @luna_ui/luna new myapp --mbt	Needs 2 manual fixes (below)

new only accepts --mbt and --help. There is no --user / --cloudflare / --dev flag — those belong to sol new, not luna.
