[Intro](#intro)\n2. [Installation](#installation)\n3. [Running Caddy](#running-caddy)\n4. [About the name](#about-the-name)\n5. [Can I contribute?](#can-i-contribute)\n6. [License](#license)\n\n### Intro\n\nCaddy is a super small npm package to make initialising repositories on GitHub much easier.\n\nWithout Caddy, initialising a repository takes at least X steps\n\n1. Open GitHub in your browser and navigate to your profile.\n2. Create a new repository.\n3. Run `git init` in a folder on your laptop.\n4. Stage your files.\n5. Write a commit message.\n6. Add your GitHub repo as a remote url.\n7. Push your code.\n\nSounds tedious, doesn't it?\nWell with Caddy all of that can be reduces to one friendly command.\n\n(Caddy can also be found on [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@vanajmoorthy/caddy))\n\n### Installation\n\nInstall Caddy via npm using the command\n\n`npm install @vanajmoorthy/caddy -g`\n\n### Running Caddy\n\nCaddy is super simple to run. Just type in Caddy in your terminal, provide your GitHub credentials, and let Caddy do the rest!\n\n![caddy login page](screenshots/caddylogin.png)\n\nThen you just input the your repo name and description.\n\n![caddy name](screenshots/name.png)\n\n_PS: Caddy even generates a custom .gitignore for you with the files of your choice!_\n\n### About the name\n\n**This is very stupid**\n\nCaddies _support_ you. Just like this tool does.\nAnd the first _automatic_ car ever released was a Cadillac, and this tool automates creating a GitHub repository for you.\n\nTo be entirely honest, I'm very up to name suggestions.\n\n### Can I contribute?\n\nI would absolutely love that! You can submit any pull requests you want, any added functionality or optimisation would be welcomed. I was also looking forward to bringing similar versions of Caddy to other native package managers, so any help with that would be great as well!\n\n### License\n\nCaddy lives under the MIT license\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvanajmoorthy%2Fcaddy","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fvanajmoorthy%2Fcaddy","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvanajmoorthy%2Fcaddy/lists"}
