🚀 Create TypeScript CLI App

Create TypeScript CLI App is a simple and efficient tool to set up a Node.js TypeScript project with minimal hassle. It comes pre-configured with essential tools and libraries, allowing you to focus on writing your code rather than setting up your environment.

✨ Features

• 📁 Single File Output: Webpack bundles your project into a single JavaScript file with a shebang (#!/usr/bin/env node). This allows for easy integration and sharing without needing to install npm packages.
• 🔷 TypeScript: Ensures type safety and improves code quality.
• 🔍 ESLint: Maintains code quality by identifying and fixing problems in your JavaScript code.
• 💅 Prettier: Ensures consistent code formatting.
• 🧪 Unit Testing: Set up with Vitest to ensure your code is tested and reliable.
• 🛠️ CLI Tools: Includes popular npm packages for creating CLI apps:
  • Chalk: For styling command-line output.
  • Commander: For parsing command-line arguments.
  • Inquirer: For creating interactive command-line prompts.

⚙️ Prerequisites

• Node.js: Version 20 or higher.

🚀 Getting Started

npx @canseyran/create-ts-cli-app <project-directory>
