yo      


What's Yeoman?

Yeoman helps you to kickstart new projects, prescribing best practices and tools to help you stay productive.

To do so, we provide a generator ecosystem. A generator is basically a plugin that can be run with the yo command to scaffold complete projects or useful parts.

Usage

``sh


install yo

npm install --global yo

install a generator

npm install --global generator-webapp

run it

yo webapp
`

or via brew:

`sh
brew install yo
`

To create and distribute your own generator, refer to our official documentation

You can also run a local generator on your computer as such:

`sh


Running a local generator


yo ./path/to/local/generator
`

Options

- --no-color - Disable colors.
- --version - Print the current yo version.
- --help - Print yo help menu with the list of found generators.
- --generators - Print available generators.
- --local-only - Disable lookup of globally-installed generators.




Troubleshooting

Running yo doctor command can help you troubleshoot common issues.

If doctor doesn't help, then check opened issues for a similar problem. Open a new issue if your problem haven't been reported yet. Make sure to always include the version of yo (yo --version) and Node.js (node --version`) you use.

If your issue only occurs using a generator, please report the issues on the generator's repository.
