create-project

An opinionated scaffolder for my full stack web projects.

This is the project generator I use as a starting point for my own apps, including thomaslorincz.com and many of my portfolio projects. It will evolve over time as my preferred stack, defaults, and project patterns change.

The generated app is a full stack Bun workspace with a Vite React frontend and a Cloudflare Worker backend. It is designed to be developed locally and deployed to Cloudflare Workers.

What It Creates

The generated project includes:

• A React + Vite + TypeScript frontend.
• A Cloudflare Workers backend using Hono.
• Drizzle ORM configured for PostgreSQL.
• Wrangler configuration for local development and deployment.
• Bun workspace scripts for development, formatting, linting, and deployment.
• Cursor-friendly AI rules via @thomaslorincz/ai-rules, with a platform picker during scaffolding.

Usage

bun create @thomaslorincz/project my-project

During scaffolding you'll be prompted to choose an AI platform. Defaults to Cursor.

# Use Claude Code rules instead of Cursor
bun create @thomaslorincz/project my-project --ai-platform claude

# Skip AI rules entirely
bun create @thomaslorincz/project my-project --ai-platform none

To refresh rules later in a generated project:

bunx @thomaslorincz/ai-rules sync
