Hello, Babylonians šŸ‘‹. I published a Node.js CLI named ā€˜create-babylon-appā€™. This provides some templates (currently two) of Babylon.js development environments, and install them in a command. You can run the following commands to launch dev server that hosting Babylon.js web application! (also pnpm and yarn is supported) ```sh # create a project from template npm create babylon-app # install dependencies npm i # launch dev server npm run dev ``` Iā€™ve added Vite-ts and Vite-js templates. I assume that the webpack and some JS framework integration templates are in demand. * * * > **[create-babylon-app](https://www.npmjs.com/package/create-babylon-app)** > > A CLI for scaffolding Babylon.js Web App..

This is great, thanks! I first came across the tutorial here [Babylon.js docs](https://doc.babylonjs.com/guidedLearning/usingVite) but got confused by the unusual folder structure - a parent folder then project subfolders. So, they should replace that with this! ---

Welcome @bburnskm! Honestly, thanks to @drumath2237 for the initiative but the scaffolded project is far from perfect. @bburnskm you can find several boilerplate projects for babylon.js on GitHub: [https://github.com/search?q=babylonjs%20boilerplate&type=repositories](https://github.com/search?q=babylonjs%20boilerplate&type=repositories) Choose the most recent and/or the one with the most stars. šŸ–– ---

Yes exactly, this is still a experimental and hobby projectā€¦(not 1.0) I want to keep improving this! ---

Thank you so much. It is very helpful. Could you tell me how to run with pnpm? It is new for me and I do not know how to do. ---

My development environment is below. - Windows 10,11 - pnpm v9.1.1 (I usually use pnpm) - Node.js 20.9.0 Does your pnpm works correctly for other projects? ---

Windows 11 pnpm v9.1.0 Node.js v18.16.0 It works correctly for other projects. It might be due to that my Node.js version is older than yours. ---

ummā€¦ I tried again with Node.js v18.17.1, but it worked correctly. Iā€™m sorry I have no idea how to fix itā€¦
