# Hello World example ## How to use Download the example: ```bash curl https://codeload.github.com/zeit/next.js/tar.gz/master | tar -xz next.js-master/examples/hello-world cd next.js-master/examples/hello-world ``` or clone the repo: ```bash git clone git@github.com:zeit/next.js.git --depth=1 cd next.js/examples/hello-world ``` Install the dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` Run the dev server: ```bash npm run dev ``` ## The idea behind the example This example shows the most basic idea behind Next. We have 2 pages: `pages/index.js` and `pages/about.js`. The former responds to `/` requests and the latter to `/about`. Using `next/link` you can add hyperlinks between them with universal routing capabilities.
