create-vanilla-gorilla

Scaffold a new static site from the vanilla-gorilla template.

npx create-vanilla-gorilla my-site

What it does

1. Clones the vanilla-gorilla template into my-site.
2. Strips the template's git history and re-initializes a fresh repo.
3. Renames the copied package.json's name field to match your project.
4. Prints next steps.

That's it — no config, no prompts beyond the project name, no auto-install. This tool's only job is to hand you a clean copy of the template; everything else (the build pipeline, page scaffolding, deploy workflows) is documented in the template repo's own README.

Requirements

• Node.js 18 or later
• git, available on your PATH
