import { Tabs, TabItem, Alert } from '@aws-amplify/ui-react'; import { InstallScripts } from '@/components/InstallScripts'; import { NextSteps } from './NextSteps'; Amplify UI Storage components use [Amplify Storage](https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/storage/getting-started/q/platform/js/) to allow your users to upload and interact with files stored in Amazon S3 with minimal boilerplate. ## Quick start The Amplify UI Storage components work seamlessly with the [Amplify CLI](https://docs.amplify.aws/cli/start/install/) to **automatically** work with your backend. First, update `@aws-amplify/cli` with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) or [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) if you're using a version before `6.4.0`: ```shell npm install -g @aws-amplify/cli@latest ``` ```shell yarn global add @aws-amplify/cli@latest ``` Now that you have the Amplify CLI installed, you can set up your Amplify project by running `amplify init` in your project's root directory. Then run `amplify add storage` and follow the prompts to add storage to your backend configuration. The Amplify Storage category requires you have auth set up. When you run `amplify add storage` it will prompt you to add auth as well. _If you have an existing backend, run `amplify pull` to sync your `aws-exports.js` with your cloud backend._ You should now have an `aws-exports.js` file in your `src/` directory with your latest backend configuration. After setting up Amplify make sure to install the Amplify libraries.
