SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? It removes the guesswork from verifying that a Wix CLI application is ready for release by running a structured four-step validation workflow and reporting exactly where failures occur. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Sequential Validation Workflow: Runs package installation, TypeScript compilation checks, build, and preview deployment in order, stopping at the first failure. - Targeted TypeScript Checks: Supports checking specific extension directories (dashboard pages, site widgets, modals, backend) for faster feedback during iterative development. - Debug Log Diagnostics: Reads .wix/debug.log when CLI errors are unclear, providing full error traces for troubleshooting. - Use Case: After implementing a new dashboard extension, run validation to confirm dependencies install, types compile, the build succeeds, and preview URLs are generated before shipping. ## Quick Start Validate my Wix app and confirm it builds and previews successfully before release.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate a Wix CLI app before release?

Run four sequential steps: install dependencies with the detected package manager, check types with npx tsc --noEmit, build with npx wix build, and start the preview with npx wix preview. Stop and report errors if any step fails.

How to run TypeScript checks on specific Wix extension files?

Pass targeted glob paths to npx tsc --noEmit, such as src/extensions/dashboard/pages/**/*.ts or src/extensions/backend/**/*.ts. Use targeted checks during iterative development and full project checks before final validation.

Which package manager does Wix app validation use?

The package manager is detected from lock files: package-lock.json means npm, yarn.lock means yarn, and pnpm-lock.yaml means pnpm. If no lock file exists, npm is used by default.

Why does wix build fail with no clear error message?

Truncated terminal output can hide the real error. Read .wix/debug.log in the project root for the full error trace and stack details, focusing on the last lines for the most recent errors.

What should I do when Wix preview fails to start?

Check wix.config.json for configuration issues and port conflicts first. If the cause is unclear, read .wix/debug.log for details; for stale CLI state after config changes, delete the .wix directory and rebuild.
