Have you ever created a new npm package by running npm init -y so that you can
skip the interactive questionnaire about your package's description, repository,
and license?
I know I have!
But have you also forgotten to put a - character in front of your y? Me
too!
Thanks to npm init's otherwise goofy and
surprising behavior of taking whatever is passed after init and searching the
registry for create-nonsense@latest in order to execute npx create-nonsense,
we were able to recover from this frequent typo by publishing create-y.
Please enjoy!
Also, don't run npm init -y y.
