**create-jquery-plugin** is a CLI tool for creating a ready-to-start jQuery plugin development environment with modern configurations.
It will create a development environment with a pre-configured build system and you can get started immediately with your plugin development.
Also, it is easily customizable that allows you to add or remove any tools or setup.
The development setup will include the boilerplate project for the jQuery plugin development, pre-configured gulp tasks for JavaScript transpile,
CSS/SCSS building, test/lint scripts, hot loading, example page, readme, etc.

Usage
-----

The command will walk you through a few simple prompts and creates a ready-to-start local development setup for your new jQuery plugin.

```bash
npx create-jquery-plugin
```

Or, fast track with default settings, just pass your plugin name.
```bash
npx create-jquery-plugin jquery-my-plugin
```

This will create a directory with the your plugin name and with all the tools installed.

How to start the development
-----
To start the development process, `cd` to your new plugin directory and run `npm start` or `yarn start`.
For example, if your new plugin is "jquery-my-plugin", just run

```bash
cd jquery-my-plugin
npm start
```

It will open the `example/index.html` file with [Browserify](http://browserify.org/) sync. You can start coding on the directory `src`, the example page will hot load as you make changes.
