:thinking: What is Protem?

Protem is a CLI where there is a set of projects to use, Protem will handle installing the node dependencies for the project (unless configured not to) along with any other requirements needed.

:sunglasses: Why Protem?

Protem was made for convinence and ease-of-use. It gives you a starter template for a variety of projects, ranging from Discord bots (using Discord.js v12) to Express apps, and much more.

The file structure is already setup as well, with a clear description with what goes where and why in the FILE_STRUCTURE.md file. Protem also checks if the version is outdated to the latest version, and if so, notifys you that it is and that you should update. It also has a list of changes, but this is false by default.

:gear: CLI Options

Everything is optional in the CLI, if all is left blank, it will create a "Hello world!" project.
