**Kitschpatrol's TypeScript project templates.**

<!-- /short-description -->

## Overview

This repository contains very basic starter templates for TypeScript projects integrating [@kitschpatrol/shared-config](https://github.com/kitschpatrol/shared-config).

The lint tools and rules that come along with [@kitschpatrol/shared-config](https://github.com/kitschpatrol/shared-config) are opinionated and draconian, and won't be to everyone's taste.

The templates use [tsdown](https://tsdown.dev/) for building TypeScript libraries and Node-based CLI tools, and [Vite](https://vite.dev/) for web projects. [Bingo](https://www.create.bingo/) is used for the project templating system itself.

## Getting started

### Dependencies

[Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) 20.19.0 or higher and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/) are required.

## Usage

### Create a new project

```sh
pnpm create @kitschpatrol/project@latest
```

### CLI options

```txt
Bingo template options:

  --directory (string): What local directory path to run under
      npx @kitschpatrol/create-project --directory my-fancy-project

  --help (string): Prints help text.
      npx @kitschpatrol/create-project --help

  --mode ("setup" | "transition"): Which mode to run in.
      npx @kitschpatrol/create-project --mode setup
      npx @kitschpatrol/create-project --mode transition
