Boiler

The generic, extensible boilerplate code generator.

Use-case

boiler will be useful for you if you find yourself repeatedly writing the same mundane code over and over. It is also useful if you wish to create projects from scratch without having to remember all the setup involved for each project type.

Installation

Prequisities:

Run the following command to install boiler globally on your system:

npm install -g boiler

Ensure that BOILER_PATH is set to a valid directory path. This is where many boiler-related files will be stored.
