Velvet is an administration backend for Magento 2 websites.

There are many options for running a Magento storefront headlessly, such as Daffodil, PWA Studio and Vue Storefront.

No such solution currently exists to replace the traditional Magento administrative backend. That's where Velvet comes in. It is the missing piece to run Magento completely headless.

Velvet is built with modern web technologies such as React, Typescript, GraphQL and MUI.

DISCLAIMER: Velvet is still in heavy development, with many features missing. It is not production-ready.

1. Make sure that the following extensions are installed on your M2 instance:
   • The m2-module-velvet metapackage.
2. Run the GraphQL code generator: REACT_APP_BACKEND_URL="https://magento24.test/graphql" yarn codegen
3. Start the application: REACT_APP_BACKEND_URL="https://magento24.test/graphql" yarn start
4. Visit http://localhost:3000/
