@quilted/create

This package provides a command line tool for generating new Quilt projects.

When run inside an existing Quilt workspace, this command will add additional apps or packages to the same workspace.

You can also run it outside an existing repository, and it will create a new repository with a Quilt app or package. This new repo can be configured either as a “monorepo”, with room for additional projects, or as a repo just focused on a single project.

The best way to use this command is to run the create command in your favorite package manager. Quilt supports npm, yarn, and pnpm.

pnpm create @quilted # for pnpm
npm create @quilted # for npm
yarn create @quilted # for yarn

Note: If you don’t already have a favorite package manager, we recommend pnpm. pnpm is fast, takes up less space on disk, and produces a strict package installation that enforces dependency management best practices.

This command will ask you what type of project you want to create. If you want to jump right to creating a particular kind of project, you can pass it as an additional argument to this command:

pnpm create @quilted app # create an app with pnpm
npm create @quilted package # create a package with npm

This command also accepts many command-line flags to pre-answer the questions you will be asked when creating your project. To learn more about these flags, run the command with the --help flag:

pnpm create @quilted --help
