Bootstrap a new aggregate

This tutorial builds on the Basic Kafka Streams tutorial. If you have completed the previous tutorial, you can use that repository for working through this tutorial: skip to the nex step. Otherwise, follow the steps below to create your own copy of the completed tutorial:

Create your own copy of the base tutorial

1. Click   Use this template to create a new repository, and fill in the details:

   

2. When GitHub creates the new repo, a boostrap workflow will run to customise the new repository. Wait for this workflow to complete in the Actions tab:

   

3. Clone the new repository locally.

4. Finish the initialisation of the repository by running the clean_up.sh script from the root of the repository.

   ./.creek/clean_up.sh
   

   The clean-up script will finish off the customisation of the new repository, removing now redundant workflows, scripts and code.

5. Commit the changes back to the GitHub

   git add -A
   git commit -m "clean_up script"
   git push
   

The repository is now ready for the aggregate descriptor to be defined, which will be covered in the next step.
