@sw-yx have suggestion to move tsdx templates to own repository under org @tsdx and allow tsdx to create projects using remote templates tsdx create @tsdx/browser-extension
P.S. for inspiration: https://github.com/eykrehbein/cook

up to jared! may be more maintenance than he wants to handle.

[ambroseus]

yeah) can help @jaredpalmer and tsdx community to maintain dedicated templates repo.. ;)

[ambroseus]

btw, CRA has ability to use external templates:
npx create-react-app PROJECT_NAME --template my-awesome-template

re: browser extension, why wouldn’t you use webpack? Aren’t extensions app-like? Idk I never built one.

I'd love this. I just want to get down to writing code and implementing business logic, not figure out how to set up new toolchains.

true true. extensions are app-like and i still dont like using rollup to build apps.
