A Yeoman generator for the Kickoff front-end framework
Yeoman generator for the Kickoff framework
Using our Yeoman Generator is the best and fastest way to get Kickoff each time you want to start a new project. It will ask you a few questions and then build a custom version of Kickoff version 4.0.1 for your needs.
What is Yeoman?
Yeoman helps you kickstart new projects, prescribing best practices and tools to help you stay productive. Yeoman is open-source but is maintained by a number of people from Google.
We have created a generator that once installed, allows you to create a custom build of Kickoff whenever you need.
Installation
Install Yeoman
If you haven't installed Yeoman yet, run this command in your terminal:
npm install -g yo
Install the generator
To install generator-kickoff from npm, run:
npm install -g generator-kickoff
Install them both :)
npm install -g yo generator-kickoff
Finally, initiate the generator:
yo kickoff
The Kickoff generator asks for this information:
- Project name
- What are the project developer's names?
- Choose your javascript namespace (default is
KO) - Do you want to use Kickoff Statix? (y/N)
- Do you want to use Browserify? (y/N)
- Which javascript libraries would you like to use? jQuery v1.x/2.x, Trak.js, Swiftclick & Cookies are the options
- Would you like to use Grunticon? (y/N)
- Would you like to use Grunticon? (Y/n)
- Do you want to include the default Javascript shims? (These are generated by the
grunt shimlycommand) (y/N)
