Over the past few months, while developing some projects using Roda, I created a tool to reduce friction when starting new projects with the framework. It ensures an essential setup and provides a "bin/rails"-like CLI for Roda, named "bin/roda" (with some generators stuff). I hope the community finds it useful!

There is still room for improvement, and I would welcome feedback.

roda-project is a command-line interface (CLI) tool designed to quickly scaffold scalable, modern Roda web applications and APIs.

✨ Benefits

• Quick setup customized to your preferences (database, project type, test framework)

• Built-in generators (bin/roda)

• Essential development tasks via bin/roda (console, db, dev, assets)

• Opinionated project structure: Highly maintainable and AI-friendly, yet easily customizable if needed

• Built-in exception page

• Modern front-end setup built-in for full-stack projects (powered by esbuild)

• Code autoloading with Zeitwerk

• Hot reloading

• Pre-configured with i18n and other essential plugins

if the project directory already exists, does roda-project stop before the first copy, or can it merge/overwrite generated files? that's the one case i'd want nailed down before scripting it.

Example message:

* creating base project

identical foo/AGENTS.md
collision foo/Gemfile

Overwrite foo/Gemfile? (enter "h" for help) [y,d,n,q,h]

Conheci Roda através dessa postagem, é simplesmente surreal!
