Why?

It was a fun way to learn deeper concepts around Node.

Currently this is just a barebones CLI that gives you the choice of 4 templates

Eventually

I want to build this out to provide theme tooling choices like Chakra-UI and Tailwind but as of right now the templates come with barebones CSS styling.

Built using

Usage

Run npx create-zp-cli to start your good time.

Note: If no flags are passed you will be prompted for a template choice and whether you want to install the deeps within the project along with the name of your project.

Once completed let the magic happen and you are off to the races!

Flags

--yes , -y Skips all prompts and passes default vlaues for all options, defaults to false

--install , -i Installs all chosen template dependencies, defaults to false

[template] Specifies what template you want to use. spelling matters capitalization does not defaults to NextJS

Template choices: NextJS || NextJS-Typescript || React || React-Typescript
