Issue Summary

The installation immediately reported an error saying that medusa is not an internal or external command. Where in the document does it say that @medusajs/medusa-cli needs to be installed?

To be honest, the documentation is very confusing and very unfriendly, I hope the documentation can explain these basics more clearly.

getting start just one sentence npx create-medusa-app@latest

" Get started#

Prerequisites 3 Node.js v20+↗ Git CLI tool↗ PostgreSQL↗ Create your first Medusa store by running the following command:

Terminal npx create-medusa-app@latest "

No, its pop error after installed, "medusa is not an internal or external command"

Where is it mentioned that you need to install cli? It is very unfriendly to newbies, thank you.

How can this issue be resolved?

1. easier to start 2.don't waste time

+1 I am experiencing the same issues and need some assistance with CORS and .env configuration. I am unable to log into the admin panel. I had intended to use Medusa in a production environment, but there appears to be limited documentation available regarding configuration. I reached out to the Medusa team about a year ago, but they pay such a deaf ear.

I wasted an afternoon, and after solving the cli, some errors that were not documented kept appearing, at least I couldn't find them when getting started.

First, there is not much information online, and the ones that are available are v1.

Second, when you click on the content searched on Google, it is always page not found. Why not do some redirection??? It’s super confusing.

For example https://docs.medusajs.com/development/backend/install

Later, someone on reddit also mentioned that it was difficult to get started with documentation.

I'm giving up for now, I'll study other things first

I hope the official can improve the documentation
