The create-slik CLI is the single entry point for scaffolding a new Slik-generated project. You invoke it with npx — no global installation required. This page covers every argument, interactive prompt, and post-scaffold command available to you.
Usage
Replace <app-name> with the name of the directory you want to create. For example:
This creates a my-saas-app/ directory in your current working directory and begins the interactive setup.
Arguments
The name of the project directory to create. Use lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens. This becomes the directory name and the name field in package.json.
Interactive prompts
After you run the command, Slik walks you through four prompts. Use your arrow keys to select an option and press Enter to confirm.
1. Stack
Select the JavaScript framework for your project.
2. Theme
Select the visual design theme.
3. Database
Choose whether to include database support.
4. Auth
Choose whether to include authentication.
Terminal output
Once you confirm your selections, Slik scaffolds your project and shows its progress:
Post-scaffold commands
Once your project is created, use these commands inside your project directory.
Run npm run build before deploying to catch any TypeScript or build errors early.
