LaunchWolf

LaunchWolf is a command line tool that allows you to create and deploy MVP websites with a single command. Usage:

npx launchwolf-cli launch example.com

This will automatically:

• Purchase the domain example.com at gandi.net
• Set up static hosting with Netlify and deploy
• Set up your DNS records + SSL for the new domain so that they point to Netlify
• Set up a mailbox [e-mail] for your new domain
• Set up email forwarding to an address of your choice (optional)
• Set up an email newsletter subscription box via mailjet.com (optional)

Everything will be integrated and ready to go.

Other than the domain purchase, all services are free to get started!

Usage

• Create a static website. For example, you could use your favorite static site generator.
• Run npx launchwolf-cli launch example.com from your project directory
• Follow the steps in the interactive prompt!

Advanced Configuration

• Upon first run, the tool will gather all required information from you and store it in a global config file.
• Re-run the tool to see the path to the global config file.
• You can also create a local config file in the folder from which you run launchwolf. Local config values always have priority over global ones.

Troubleshooting

• You need to have the latest version of npm installed to use the npx command.
• You can also install LaunchWolf globally by running npm install -g launchwolf-cli. Then you can run it with launchwolf launch example.com. This way you don't have to re-download the package each time you want to use the command.
