# Azion CLI link :::note In case one or more required fields aren't informed through the specific flags, an interactive message prompts and asks for the missing information. ::: ## Link The linking process adapts the project so it's linked to Azion and can be deployed as an application. It creates the necessary configurations for future build and deployment of the application on the edge. :::note It's necessary to run the command in the project's root folder. ::: ### Usage ```sh azion link ``` ### Output Confirm the linking of the project to Azion: ```sh ? Do you want to link /cli-examples/effervescent_moon to Azion? (y/N) ``` Enter the desired name for your application: ```sh ? (Hit enter to accept the suggested name in parenthesis) Your application's name: (nimble-tyrion) ``` Choose a *preset*: ```sh ? Choose a preset: [Use arrows to move, type to filter] > Angular Astro Docusaurus Eleventy Emscripten Gatsby Hexo Html Hugo Javascript Jekyll Next React Rustwasm Svelte Typescript Vitepress Vue ``` Now, the application will be linked to Azion. Different processes occur based on the selected preset, so you need to answer the interactions that are presented. Choose if you want to run the application locally or not: ```sh ? Do you want to start a local development server? (y/N) ``` :::note If you want to start a local development server later, run 'azion dev' ::: ```sh ? Do you want to deploy your project? No ``` :::note If you want to deploy your application later, run 'azion deploy'. Your application won't be available on the edge until it's deployed. ::: :::tip Optionally, you can run `npm i azion` to install [Azion Lib](https://www.npmjs.com/package/azion). These libraries provide tools to interact with Azion services and enable custom configurations for your application. Check the [azion.config.js file reference](/en/documentation/devtools/cli/configs/azion-config-js/) for more information. ::: ### Optional flags #### auto The `--auto` option can be informed, but it isn't mandatory. If informed, the entire flow of the command runs without interruptions. #### name The `--name` option can be specified, but it isn't mandatory. If it isn't informed, the name of your project will be autogenerated. #### mode The `--mode` option can be specified, but it isn't mandatory. The expected values are `deliver` and `compute`. #### preset The `--preset` option can be specified, but it isn't mandatory. The expected values are: - Angular - Astro - Docusaurus - Eleventy - Emscripten - Gatsby - Hexo - Html - Hugo - Javascript - Jekyll - Next - React - Rustwasm - Svelte - Typescript - Vitepress - Vue #### remote The `--remote` flag, followed by a link to a git repository, specifies the project to be cloned and linked to an application during the process. #### package-manager The `--package-manager` option allows you to specify the package manager to use. Example: `npm`, `yarn`, `pnpm`. If not informed, the package manager will be set automatically based on `package-lock.json` or `yarn.lock`. If none of these files are found, then `npm` is default. #### help The `--help` option displays more information about the `link` command. Learn how to link and deploy projects on Azion Web Platform.
