devstack-cli

A CLI tool to scaffold production-ready Node.js projects in seconds — no repetitive setup, no boilerplate.

Usage

npx @_ramkrishna11/devstack-cli

Or install globally:

npm install -g @_ramkrishna11/devstack-cli

What it does

Asks you 4 questions and scaffolds a ready-to-run project:

? Project name:      my-app
? Framework:         Node.js
? Language:          TypeScript
? Package manager:   pnpm

Then copies the template, installs dependencies, and tells you exactly what to run next.
