Hannes (Jul 10 2023 at 14:16): Hannes (Jul 10 2023 at 14:16):Are there any plans to add a subcommand to quickly start a new Roc project? Something like cargo new.
Would probably want to be able to create a new package and specify the name, defaulting to the name of the directory if none is given which is what cargo new does.
roc new package [--name=my-package] .
And also create an app with a given platform:
roc new app [--name=my-app] [--platform=https://...] .
Would probably also want to borrow a bunch of cargo new's arguments like --vcs=git or --git for initialising a git repo, etc.
