generator-fpl v1.6.11

Yo FPL - Extension and Customization Generator

This is an extension generator written for Yeoman with the work of Microsoft's vscode-generator-code used as a starting point.

The FPL Extensions system wouldn't be possible without the work of VSCode's own extensions system.

Visual Studio Code

VSCode Extension Generator

Install the Generator

Install Yeoman and the Flashpoint Project Extension generator:

npm install -g yo generator-fpl

Run Yo Code

The Yeoman generator will walk you through the steps required to create your customization or extension prompting for the required information.

To launch the generator simply type:

yo fpl
