Facio: /ˈfa.ki.oː/ - Latin, meaning to make, do, act, perform, cause, bring about.
Are you forever creating new projects? Re-creating the same standard cruft over and over? Then Facio may be for you. It allows you to create your standard project skeleton once, then easily create new projects from that standard skeleton as many times as you like.
It can be as simple or as advanced as you need it to be. You can write logic
into your skeleton, store it in a git or mercurial repository, or
even write hooks to be run before or after your skeleton has been built. You
can also have as many templates as you like and quickly reference them
by name or pick from a list.
Facio aims to solve your standard project skeleton woes.
