Answers to prompts and the user's environment can be used to determine the templates, directories, files and contents to build. Support for [gulp](http://gulpjs.com), [base](https://github.com/node-base/base) and [assemble](https://github.com/assemble/assemble) plugins, and much more.\n\nFor more information about Generate:\n\n* Visit the [generate project](https://github.com/generate/generate)\n* Visit the [generate documentation](https://github.com/generate/generate/blob/master/docs/)\n* Find [generators on npm](https://www.npmjs.com/browse/keyword/generate-generator) (help us [author generators](https://github.com/generate/generate/blob/master/docs/micro-generators.md))\n\n## Command line usage\n\n### Install\n\n**Installing the CLI**\n\nTo run the `verbfile` generator from the command line, you'll need to install [generate](https://github.com/generate/generate) globally first. You can do that now with the following command:\n\n```sh\n$ npm install --global generate\n```\n\nThis adds the `gen` command to your system path, allowing it to be run from any directory.\n\n**Install generate-verbfile**\n\nYou may now install this module with the following command:\n\n```sh\n$ npm install --global generate-verbfile\n```\n\n### Run\n\nYou should now be able to run `generate-verbfile` with the following command:\n\n```sh\n$ gen verbfile\n```\n\n**What will happen?**\n\nRunning `$ gen verbfile` will run the generator's [default task](#default), which will:\n\n1. prompt you for any information that's missing\n2. render the necessary template(s) using your answers\n3. write [the resulting files](#available-tasks) to the current working directory\n\n**What you should see in the terminal**\n\nIf completed successfully, you should see both `starting` and `finished` events in the terminal, like the following:\n\n```sh\n[00:44:21] starting ...\n...\n[00:44:22] finished ✔\n```\n\nIf you do not see one or both of those events, please [let us know about it](../../issues).\n\n### Help\n\nTo see a general help menu and available commands for Generate's CLI, run:\n\n```sh\n$ gen help\n```\n\n## Next steps\n\n* [docs.md](docs.md): additional documentation for this generator\n* [Generate documentation](https://github.com/generate/generate/blob/master/docs/): visit the Generate docs\n* [Generate repo](https://github.com/generate/generate): visit the Generate repository\n\n## About\n\n### Related projects\n\n* [assemble](https://www.npmjs.com/package/assemble): Get the rocks out of your socks!
