create-mkstack

A simple utility to create a new project based on the
mkstack template.

Usage

You can run it directly with npx:

``bash


Interactive mode (prompts for directory name)

npm create mkstack

or

npx create-mkstack

Non-interactive mode (specify directory name as an argument)

npm create mkstack my-project

or

npx create-mkstack my-project

Non-interactive mode with automatic overwrite

npm create mkstack my-project -y

or

npx create-mkstack my-project --yes
`

What it does

This utility:

1. Downloads and extracts the mkstack template (from
https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/mkstack/-/archive/main/mkstack.tar) without
requiring git to be installed
2. Initializes a new git repository inside the project (if git is available)
3. Creates an initial commit with all the template files (if git is available)

Options

You can use the following options:

1. Directory Name - Provide the project directory as a command line
argument:
`bash
npx create-mkstack my-project
`

2. -y or --yes Flag - Skip confirmation when overwriting an existing
directory:
`bash
# Skip confirmation for directory overwrite
npx create-mkstack my-project -y
# or
npx create-mkstack my-project --yes
``

If no directory argument is provided, you'll be prompted for:

- Project directory name: The name of the directory where the project will be
created

Requirements

Node.js 14.0.0 or newer

Git is optional - the utility will initialize a git repository if git is
available on your system, but will work without it.
