Contribute your own boilerplate app

It's easy to contribute to create-voltage-app with your own boilerplate. For example, imagine you wanted to add an awesome boilerplate you created called "rust-invoice-generator".

First you would add it to the apps directory with the source code under apps/rust-invoice-generator/app. Then, create a apps/rust-invoice-generator/voltage-create-app-script.js file where you can configure the way the project is setup.

As a general rule the script file should:

1. Specify your app's name that will be shown in the create-voltage-app selector.
2. Configure the node's admin macaroon and endpoint to your app (typically an .env file).
3. Install dependencies.
4. Instructions on how to run the app.

Take a look at some of the voltage-create-app-script.js files that already exist in other apps for reference.
