coffeecodes-init

coffeecodes-init is a simple CLI tool to initialize a custom Next.js project with a pre-defined template. This tool allows you to quickly scaffold out a Next.js project with custom configurations, dependencies, and project structure tailored to your needs.

Features

• Custom Next.js template setup
• Pre-configured styles, pages, and structure
• CLI tool for easy and fast initialization of projects
• Extendable and modifiable template

Installation

To use coffeecodes-init, you can install it globally via npm:

npm install -g coffeecodes-init

Alternatively, you can use npx to run it without installing globally:

npx coffeecodes-init <project-name>

Usage

After installation, you can create a new Next.js project by running:

coffeecodes-init <project-name>

Replace <project-name> with the name of your new project. This will create a directory with the given project name, copy the custom Next.js template, and install the required dependencies.

Example

coffeecodes-init my-next-app

This will create a my-next-app folder with a basic Next.js structure.
