devkickstart

Description

devkickstart is a CLI tool that helps you quickly scaffold a default code structure for new coding projects.

Installation

Important: This package is intended to be installed globally. Use the following command:

npm i -g devkickstart

Local Installation

If you prefer not to install the package globally, you can use npx to run it without installing globally:

npx devkickstart nodejs my-node-project

npx will automatically find the package in the local node_modules and run it. This works whether the package is installed globally or not.

Usage

Here’s a simple example of how to use your package:

Note: You can use dks instead of devkickstart as the command.

dks nodejs my-node-project

This command will create a new directory named my-node-project with the default code structure for a Node.js project.

You can use multiple languages for generating a project, including Node.js, React, and Python. Simply replace 'nodejs' with 'reactjs' or 'python' in the command to create projects for those languages.

Getting Started

After creating your project, you can navigate to the project directory and start working on it. Here are some quick start instructions for each supported language:

Node.js

For a Node.js project:

1. Navigate to your project directory:

   cd my-node-project

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Start the server:

   node server.js

React

For a React project:

1. Navigate to your project directory:

   cd my-react-project

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Start the development server:

   npm start

Python

For a Python project:

1. Navigate to your project directory:

   cd my-python-project

2. Set up a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`

3. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Run the main script:

   python main.py
