Cookiecutter for Dotnet Console Applications

A Cookiecutter template to create Dotnet Console Applications

It is important to note that you should not try to git clone this project but use cookiecutter CLI instead as {{cookiecutter.project_slug}} will be rendered based on your input and therefore all variables and files will be rendered properly.

Requirements

Install cookiecutter command line:

Pip users:

• pip install cookiecutter

Homebrew users:

• brew install cookiecutter

Windows or Pipenv users:

NOTE: Pipenv is the new and recommended Python packaging tool that works across multiple platforms and makes Windows a first-class citizen.

You'll be prompted a few questions to help this cookiecutter template to scaffold this project and after its completed you should see a new folder at your current path with the name of the project you gave as input.

It is reccomended you format the codebase once you're ready to use it.
