compose-cli

compose-cli scaffolds a new EmDash project from the blank Compose template.

What it does

• Copies the template from assets/templates/blank into a new project directory.
• Installs dependencies with pnpm.
• Runs the bootstrap step for the new EmDash app.
• Tries to initialize Git so the project starts with a commit-ready working tree.

Usage

Create a new project:

pnpm dlx @emdash-compose/compose-cli init my-site
cd my-site
pnpm dev

If you are developing the CLI from this repository, build it first and then run the local command:

pnpm install
pnpm build
pnpm compose init my-site

Result

The generated project includes a working EmDash setup, a blank site template, and the scripts needed to continue with normal Astro development.
