Purpose

Whenever I want to build a new project, I always spent a bit of time setting up my local development environment, but I've always viewed that time taken as wasteful, so I wanted to create a repository detailing my project set-up to speed up this process for myself.

What gets created

• front-end — React/Next.js app
• back-end — Ruby or Bun/Node app (chosen during setup)
• infra/aws — AWS CDK app (TypeScript)
• packages/ — shared internal packages (add via just create-package)

Prerequisites

• Ruby
• Bun
• just
• AWS CDK (npm install -g aws-cdk)

Usage

git clone https://github.com/b718/Scaffolding.git .
just set-up-project

You will be prompted to select a back-end language (Ruby or TypeScript) and enter a project name. Once done, a fresh git repo is initialised and you're ready to go.

To add a shared package to front-end and back-end:

just create-package
