What do you use for project generation?


What do you use (if you do use) for project generation?

Use case: have a project template with all the names/dependencies/best practices baked in. Run one command with project name, have everything set up.

It would be nice to have one system to generate whatever projects: Java, C#, you name it.

I'm aware of Yeoman, and will explore it. Any others?

Related question: one you have your template, how do you make sure it actually works and is properly set up?

I have something that is exactly this in the works, planning to open up on GitHub in the next month or two. It generates multiple technologies for full-stack e2e app implementation and management. It can do more than apps, really anything file based.

I'd be interested in hearing your impressions. I can show you around and/or get you early access. tony@hofstadter.io
