📝 Table of Contents

🧐 About

I generally use a template when developing CLI applications for myself. I want to share that same template with you, in an easy to use bootstrapper that mirrors the simplicity of starting a new application with create-react-app. Thus, create-cli-application was born.

🏁 Getting Started

Prerequisites

Node (>= v10.0.0)
NPM

OS

MacOS
Linux
Windows

Installing

npm install -g create-cli-application

🎈 Usage

create-cli-application cool-app-name

Changing the Source Language

By deafault, create-cli-application will create your application as a JavaScript project. You can pass the --typescript flag to create a TypeScript project instead.

create-cli-application cool-app-name --typescript

Want support for an additional language? Feel free to open a new issue.

Interactive Mode

You can choose to use the application in an interactive mode by passing the flag --interactive.
