Overview

templ.it is a utility desktop app that streamlines your workflow by creating complex folder and file structures from a saved template. Stop manually creating src, components, and utils folders; create one template instead.

Problem

Have you ever made a reusable file structure, such as for a class or project? It can be tedious, frustrating, and time consuming. You have to manually create each of the folders and files, and if you make any changes to the parent folders, you have to restart.
