Install

$ npm install -g p5-helper

Usage

You can use p5-helper to create a project:

p5 new myAmazingProject

By default, p5-helper will use minified files and omit the p5.sound library. You can override this by using the -f and -s flags for full libraries and p5.sound, respectively.

Then, you can start a simple webserver and be well on your way to making the coolest p5 project ever!

Other features

Updating

p5-helper uses a local source of p5 to enable you to create projects anywhere, even offline. It will alert you of a new available version, after which you will be able to update with

p5 update

Customizing

Want to customize index.html or sketch.js? No problem, simply head to your global node_modules directory and edit the files under assets.
