How to run and test an example

Hi guys, I'm learning Plasmo and at the moment I want to run examples in PlasmoHQ/examples. However, after cloning the project and cd into a certain example dir then run pnpm i I get this error. Is it because I missed some important steps? ref: https://discord.com/channels/946290204443025438/946290204904390690/1044533896668258327

@tyn1998 To try the examples directly from the example repo, you will need to clone the framework itself following the contribution guide (note the recursive submodule flag): https://github.com/PlasmoHQ/plasmo/blob/main/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md - The reason being it is consuming the development/workspace version of plasmo (we use these examples as our E2E test for each release) The cli offers a --with flag to quickly test out a specific example as well, so if you would like a quicker way, please follow this guide: https://docs.plasmo.com/workflows#with-an-example-template

@Scotty
what does with-nextjs do here? Also, do I need to use pnpm?

You don't need to use pnpm, the docs show example of using yarn or npm as well. Note that with npm or yarn, you need the extra -- --with-etc And the --with-* is a feature of the plasmo CLI to fetch the dedicated example and prep the dependencies for you

Why do I run the with-antd project in examples-main, popup.tsx has an antd button, but content.tsx doesn't?、
