Get started with Live Share SDK using the Dice Roller sample, which is designed to quickly run a Dice Roller sample based on the Live Share SDK on your computer's localhost.

DiceRoller Sample

Note

This guide walks through using Live Share locally in a browser. To learn more about using the SDK in a Teams meeting, try our Agile Poker tutorial.

Set up your development environment

To get started, install:

Build and run the Dice Roller app

  1. Go to the Dice Roller sample app.

  2. Clone the Live Share SDK repository to test the sample app:

    git clone https://github.com/microsoft/live-share-sdk.git
    
  3. Run the following command to go to the Dice Roller sample app folder:

     cd live-share-sdk\samples\javascript\01.dice-roller
    
  4. Run the following command to install the dependency package:

    npm install
    
  5. Run the following command to start the client and the local server:

    npm start
    

    A new browser tab opens a http://localhost:8080 url and the Dice Roller game appears.

  6. Copy the complete URL in the browser, including the ID and paste the URL in a new window or a different browser.

    A second client for your dice roller application opens.

  7. Open both the windows and select the Roll button in one window. The state of the dice changes in both clients.
