From 8b7a6c1de0e388444462ca68e0a522accd0f6c60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brent Fisher Date: Sat, 11 Jul 2026 11:35:10 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Add Missing 'npm create amplify@latest' instructions Because there is a step included in the video that isn't in the readme, I added it. Without it, if someone is just following the readme, their installation will fail, as mine did. :) --- src/pages/[platform]/start/account-setup/index.mdx | 12 +++++++++++- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/pages/[platform]/start/account-setup/index.mdx b/src/pages/[platform]/start/account-setup/index.mdx index 2368970abf6..38f8a95eab5 100644 --- a/src/pages/[platform]/start/account-setup/index.mdx +++ b/src/pages/[platform]/start/account-setup/index.mdx @@ -282,7 +282,17 @@ sso_region = sso_registration_scopes = sso:account:access ``` -### 5.
