Kickstart a project¶
The kickstart command is an extra command that increases even more your productivity. It does the following, from a single command:
- Clones a Git repo wherever you want
- Installs dependencies automatically using the project's default package manager (or at your choice, another one).
- Launches your favorite code editor (defaults to VSCode, as seen on settings).
- Adds the project to F*ckingNode.
Of course, it only works with NodeJS (or Deno or Bun) projects.
Usage¶
Just run the following:
REPO-URL is obvious and mandatory. PATH is optional and defines the path where you want us to clone the project. If not provided, we'll create a directory in the CWD with the name of the repository (just as Git would by default). PKG MANAGER only works with NodeJS projects and lets you override the default package manager, so a project that's using npm gets cloned with, for example, pnpm instead. In Bun or Deno this is ignored, and their default install commands are used.
By this point, all main features have been covered.
