  • creates a new project in the folder projectName in the targetDirectory.
  • project is created according to the template templateName
  • files are copied to the project folder
  • package.json contains the new project name
  • dependencies and devDependencies are installed automatically
  • npm run dev is automatically run
• node index.js --help
  • shows a help text, similar to this manual, but shorter
