Tips

$3

You should configure [npm init defaults][npm-init-defaults] before using this package.

Run the following commands and replace the values below with your own:

`bash
npm config set init-author-email "niftylettuce@gmail.com"
npm config set init-author-name "Nick Baugh"
npm config set init-author-url "http://niftylettuce.com"
npm config set init-license "MIT"
npm config set init-version "0.0.0"
`

These defaults get utilized by lass when scaffolding a package and npm init in general.

To check your existing configuration, run npm config list -l`.

We highly recommend to use the tools [np][] and [release][] to version bump and release your package to GitHub and NPM.
