next-skill

A command-line tool to bootstrap a new Next.js project with best practices and a predefined project structure. It sets up a new application and includes a .claude/SKILLS.md file to guide AI-assisted development.

Usage

To create a new Next.js project, run the following command in your terminal:

npx next-skill

The script will prompt you to enter a name for your project folder. If you press enter without a name, it will install the new Next.js application in the current directory.

What it does

1. Creates a new Next.js application: It runs create-next-app to scaffold a new project.
2. Adds AI Development Standards: It creates a .claude/SKILLS.md file in your project. This file contains a set of development standards and best practices optimized for working with AI assistants like Claude.
3. Sets up Project Structure: It creates common folders like components, lib, and utils to organize your code. It correctly handles both standard and src directory layouts.
4. Environment Files: It creates .env and .env.local files for managing your environment variables.
