create-evolved

About

create-evolved is a versatile project scaffolding CLI built with Plop.js and Node.js to accelerate the bootstrap of modern applications, services, and libraries by generating opinionated, best-practice project structures automatically. It combines interactive prompts, customizable Handlebars templates, and a plugin-style architecture to support a wide range of project types.

Requirements

Before using create-evolved, ensure you have the following installed on your system:

• git -- A free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.
• dotnet -- A cross-platform toolchain for developing, building, running, and publishing .NET applications; included with the .NET SDK.
• pnpm -- A fast, disk space efficient package manager for JavaScript and Node.js projects, providing strict package management and workspace support.

Usage

1. Generate a new project

pnpm create evolved@latest

2. Follow the interactive prompts
   Answer questions about project name, author, license, and optional features

3. Start coding
   Navigate to your directory and run the usual commands (pnpm i, dotnet restore) as directed by your chosen template.

Supported Templates

IMPORTANT: When creating templates, one MUST follow our golden rule: use the most compatible syntax/runtime for services and the latest syntax/LTS for drivers. -- nagaozen
