Pick-A-Template Yeoman Generator

The Pick-A-Template Yeoman Generator will scaffold out a basic node application which includes built-in Sass and Browsersync Gulp tasks as well as the ability to scaffold out Ejs, Jade, Handlebars or Dust templated apps within one generator. Just make your selection when you run the generator!

More templating languages to come. To make a request just write an issue or even make a pull request.

Feedback

Help me make this better! If something in generator-pick-a-template could be better, or just doesn't work, tell me about it in an issue, or even take a stab at fixing it yourself in a fork and making a pull request. You can do it!

Getting Started

Before you begin, it will be extremely beneficial to familiarize yourself with Node.js. You might also want to familiarize yourself with a few templating languages so you know which to choose.

You will need to have NPM installed. Get it at http://nodejs.org.
