set-dev

set-dev is a zero-config CLI tool that helps developers generate starter setup commands and JSON scripts for popular frameworks in seconds—no more memorizing or searching boilerplate commands. Speed up your workflow for JavaScript (React, Express, Next.js) stacks, with support for Python backends and data science environments coming soon!

Features

• Instant CLI Usage: No install needed! Run with npx for one-off setups.
• Framework Coverage:
  • JavaScript: React, Express, Next.js
  • Output includes ready-to-use setup commands and a tailored JSON file (e.g., react-setup.json)
• Customizations:
  • Generate commands for TypeScript, MongoDB, MySQL, Postgres, Redis, Tailwind, ESLint, Material UI, Redux, and more.
• Smart Output: Quickly see all commands and packages needed for your stack.

Installation & Usage

Run instantly with npx:

npx set-dev --react      # Create React setup JSON
npx set-dev --express    # Express.js setup commands
npx set-dev --next       # Next.js starter scripts

A JSON file with curated commands for your chosen framework is generated in your current directory.

Examples

React (Vite, MUI, Redux, Tailwind, etc.)

npx set-dev --react

• vite-react, vite-react-mui, vite-react-redux, vite-react-tailwind, etc., included in output.

Express (TS, MongoDB, Redis, Middleware...)

npx set-dev --express

• Output commands for TypeScript, Mongoose, MySQL, Postgres, Redis, and more.

Next.js (TypeScript, 3JS, MUI, Redux...)

npx set-dev --next

Output

Each run creates a JSON file (e.g., react-setup.json) containing:

• Project name, version, description
• Commands for multiple use cases (Vanilla, TypeScript, DB integrations, UI libraries)
• Additional package install commands

Coming Soon

• Python Backend Setups: Flask, Django, FastAPI, and environment management
• Data Science Setups: Jupyter Notebooks, ML libraries (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn), visualization tools

You’ll be able to run:

npx set-dev --flask
npx set-dev --django
npx set-dev --ds

And get ready-to-use setup scripts for Python and data science environments.

Why set-dev?

Stop memorizing and copy-pasting commands! set-dev creates ready-made project structures, enabling rapid prototyping, consistent onboarding, and reproducible setups across tech stacks.
