+# create-project-cli
+
+A CLI tool to quickly scaffold new projects with predefined templates. Save 10+ minutes on every project setup!
+
+## Why This Tool?
+
+Stop wasting time creating the same folders and files for every new project. This tool automates project setup so you can start coding immediately.
+
+## Features
+
+- 🚀 **Zero Dependencies** - Uses only Node.js built-in modules
+- 📦 **5 Templates** - Basic, Web, API, CLI, and Fullstack
+- 🔧 **Git Ready** - Optional Git initialization
+- ✅ **Smart Validation** - No duplicate or invalid project names
+
+## Installation
+
+### Option 1: NPM (Recommended)
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @chandan-mishra/create-project-cli
+# Now use globally
+create-proj my-project
+```
+
+### Option 2: From Source
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/chandan-mishra846/scaffold-cli.git
+cd scaffold-cli
+node index.js my-project
+```
+
+**Requirements:** Node.js 14.0.0+
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Basic project
+create-proj my-project
+
+# Web project with Git
+create-proj my-website -t web -g
+
+# API with author name
+create-proj my-api -t api -a "Your Name"
+
+# Fullstack project
+create-proj my-fullstack -t fullstack
+```
+
+**Note:** If installed from source, use `node index.js` instead of `create-proj`
+
+## Commands
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `create-proj <name>` | Create basic project |
+| `-t, --template <type>` | Choose template: basic, web, api, cli, fullstack |
+| `-g, --git` | Initialize Git repository |
+| `-a, --author <name>` | Set author name |
+| `-h, --help` | Show help |
+
+## Templates
+
+**Basic** - Simple structure with src/, utils/, tests/  
+**Web** - HTML/CSS/JS with organized folders  
+**API** - REST API with routes and controllers  
+**CLI** - Command-line tool structure  
+**Fullstack** - Complete frontend + backend setup
+
+## Example Output
+
+```bash
+$ node index.js portfolio -t web -g
+
+Creating web project: portfolio...
+✓ Project structure created
+✓ Git repository initialized
+
+✓ Project "portfolio" created successfully!
+
+Next steps:
+  cd portfolio
+  npm install
+  npm start
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+npm test
+```
+

+# Assignment Submission
+
+**Student Name:** Chandan Mishra  
+**Date:** January 20, 2026  
+**Project:** create-project-cli - Command Line Project Generator
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Submission Checklist
+
+✅ **Source Code:** Complete and available on GitHub  
+✅ **README.md:** Comprehensive documentation with setup and usage instructions  
+✅ **Screenshots:** Included in `screenShot_collection.pdf`  
+✅ **Video Demonstration:** Available on YouTube  
+
+---
+
+## 🔗 Links
+
+**GitHub Repository:**  
+https://github.com/chandan-mishra846/scaffold-cli
+
+**Video Demonstration (3-5 minutes):**  
+https://youtu.be/nP_Fc_LGYIg
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Problem Statement
+
+As a developer, I frequently start new projects and spend 10-15 minutes manually creating:
+- Folder structures (src/, utils/, tests/, public/, etc.)
+- Configuration files (package.json, .gitignore, README.md)
+- Boilerplate code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript files)
+- Git repository initialization
+
+This repetitive task wastes valuable development time and is prone to inconsistencies.
+
+---
+
+## ✨ Solution
+
+A command-line utility that automates project scaffolding with **5 predefined templates**:
+
+1. **Basic** - Simple project with src/, utils/, tests/
+2. **Web** - HTML/CSS/JS with organized structure
+3. **API** - REST API with routes and controllers
+4. **CLI** - Command-line tool structure
+5. **Fullstack** - Complete frontend + backend setup
+
+**Time Saved:** Reduces 15 minutes of setup to 30 seconds!
+
+---
+
+## 🛠️ Technical Implementation
+
+### Technology Stack
+- **Language:** JavaScript (Node.js)
+- **Dependencies:** Zero external packages
+- **Built-in Modules:** fs, path, child_process
+
+### Architecture
+- **Object-Oriented Design:** Modular classes for separation of concerns
+- **ArgumentParser:** Handles command-line argument parsing
+- **TemplateGenerator:** Creates template-specific structures
+- **Logger:** Provides colored console output
+
+### Key Features
+✅ Zero dependencies (uses only Node.js built-in modules)  
+✅ Smart validation (prevents overwrites, invalid names)  
+✅ Git integration (optional repository initialization)  
+✅ Customization (author name, template selection)  
+✅ Error handling (clear, colored error messages)
+
+---
+
+## 🎨 Design Decisions
+
+### 1. **No External Dependencies**
+Used only Node.js built-in modules (fs, path, child_process) to ensure:
+- Zero installation time
+- No version conflicts
+- Lightweight and portable
+
+### 2. **Modular Architecture**
+Separated concerns into distinct classes:
+- **index.js** - Main CLI orchestrator
+- **argumentParser.js** - Handles input parsing
+- **templateGenerator.js** - Creates project structures
+- **logger.js** - Manages console output
+
+### 3. **Template System**
+Five templates cover common project types:
+- Eliminates need for manual customization
+- Follows industry best practices
+- Extensible for future templates
+
+### 4. **Error Handling**
+- Pre-validation prevents destructive operations
+- Clear, colored error messages guide users
+- Graceful Git failure handling
+
+### 5. **User Experience**
+- Colored console output (success=green, error=red, info=cyan)
+- Comprehensive help menu
+- Next steps guidance after project creation
+
+---
+
+## 📸 Sample Output
+
+All screenshots demonstrating features are available in `screenShot_collection.pdf`:
+
+1. Help command showing all options
+2. Basic project creation
+3. Web template with Git initialization
+4. API project with author customization
+5. Generated folder structure
+6. Auto-generated code samples
+7. Error handling for duplicate directories
+8. Input validation for invalid templates
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 How to Run
+
+```bash
+# Clone repository
+git clone https://github.com/chandan-mishra846/scaffold-cli.git
+cd scaffold-cli
+
+# Basic usage
+node index.js my-project
+
+# Web project with Git
+node index.js my-website -t web -g
+
+# API with author
+node index.js my-api -t api -a "Chandan Mishra"
+
+# View help
+node index.js --help
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+The project includes `test.js` for validation:
+
+```bash
+npm test
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Impact
+
+**Before:** 15 minutes of manual setup per project  
+**After:** 30 seconds automated setup  
+**Time Savings:** 96.7% reduction  
+**Consistency:** 100% standardized structure  
+
