Init

Start Deno projects in Visual Studio Code a little faster with deno-init, a small executable that scaffolds a Deno project structure for you.

Select a language (js/ts), entrypoint and optionally a debug configuration.

Prerequisites

• Deno
• Visual Studio Code
• Deno Language Extension for Visual Studio Code

Installation

deno install --allow-read --allow-write -n deno-init https://deno.land/x/init/init.ts

Usage

When run without any options deno-init will ask for:

• JavaScript or TypeScript (default TypeScript)
• entrypoint (default mod.ts)
• dependency entrypoint (default deps.ts)
• debug configuration file for debugging Deno in Visual Studio Code (default: y).

If you simply want to use all the default values you can pass --yes or -y. Note that deno-init will not overwrite anything by default in case you already made some of the files/directories.
