HOW TO RUN GENERATOR LOCALLY

Directly run from code rather than installing(dev-mode)

• Run npm link command on your local to set your binary commands(eg: generate, generate-program etc.), which will point to local folder
• Start making changes in your generator code and try the commands again to run them with updated codes

Create local package instead of publishing it everytime to npmjs.com

npm pack //this will create a generator_poc-<version>.tgz file at current location
npm i -g generator_poc-2.0.3.tgz

Steps for package publishing
