GoBuildSomething

GoBuildSomething is a minimal CLI tool built with Go that helps you to quickly scaffold a new project.

Simply provide a project name and optional path (defaults to Desktop) to get started with an already initialized Git repository

Why?

I just wanted to automate the process of creating new projects, I got tired of doing mkdir, cd and git init multiple times everyday 🥲

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Go installed on your system.
• A project idea 🧠

Installation

1. Clone the repository

2. Run the program:

cd GoBuildSomething && go run main.go

or

go build && go install
GoBuildSomething

Help

To get help on how to use the program, run:

go run main.go --help

or

GoBuildSomething -h

Note

You can edit the config.json file to change the default path. It will be located at ~/go/bin.
