Yeoman Nitro Generator
Yeoman generator for Nitro - lets you quickly set up a frontend project with sensible defaults and best practices.
Nitro is a Node.js application for simple and complex frontend development with a tiny footprint.
It provides a proven but flexible structure to develop your frontend code, even in a large team.
Keep track of your code with a modularized frontend. This app and the suggested atomic design, BEM and terrific concepts could help.
Nitro is simple, fast and flexible. Use this app for all your frontend work.
Usage
Before using, you need of course node and npm installed.
Nitro and the Nitro generator are tested with the current versions of the node.js releases 0.12 and 4 (LTS). So everything between should work.
The node.js release 0.10 is no longer supported and it's not recommended to update node.js to release 5.
Install yo and other required tools:
npm install -g yo bower gulp jasmine karma-cliIf you want to use TypeScript, you need to install "tsd" (typescript definition repository) as well.
npm install -g tsdInstall generator-nitro:
npm install -g generator-nitroProject Generation
