Installing the React Router Framework

For this section of the tutorial, in addition to React Router, we will be using Vite as a builder and test server.

First, let's create a React app my-app using Vite. To do this, open the terminal and enter the following commands:

terminalnpm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react
cd my-app
npm install

In order to work with routing we need the react-router-dom module, let's install it too:

terminalnpm install react-router-dom

Now everything is ready to start working. Let's launch our application:

terminalnpm run dev

Copy the link http://localhost:5173/, specified in the terminal, to the browser address bar and see the running application (you can press the button with the counter).
