• it creates a blank and private remote repository on your gitlab account if both arguments were typed correctly;

FAQs

A package was not found during installation. What does it happen, then?

• A message will appear to the user stating that the current package was not found. It will be asked whether the user would like to try installing that package again. If the user inputs (y|yes) then it will be asked again to retype the package name. If the searching error persists, and the user enters yes for retrying every time it fails, then he/she would have to constantly retype the package name until it is correct and npm finally finds it and install via npm or yarn(depending on what the user has a package manager; the preference is always yarn whether it is installed). The prompt fail message and question will be terminated only after the user gives up and enters (n|no) on the console. After that it will proceed to the next queued package.

Which operational system does it work?

• So far it is guaranteed that will work on Ubuntu and perhaps on other debian systems. it will not be able to work properly on any Apple device so far.

ps: if I had a mac operating system then I would be able to develop a automatizer for Apple devices. I apologize for that.
