Initialize New Project

Initialize new project with essential structure

Instructions

1. **Project Analysis and Setup**

• Parse the project type and framework from arguments: `$ARGUMENTS`
• If no arguments provided, analyze current directory and ask user for project type and framework
• Create project directory structure if needed
• Validate that the chosen framework is appropriate for the project type

2. **Base Project Structure**

• Create essential directories (src/, tests/, docs/, etc.)
• Initialize git repository with proper .gitignore for the project type
• Create README.md with project description and setup instructions
• Set up proper file structure based on project type and framework

3. **Framework-Specific Configuration**

• **Web/React**: Set up React with TypeScript, Vite/Next.js, ESLint, Prettier
• **Web/Vue**: Configure Vue 3 with TypeScript, Vite, ESLint, Prettier
• **Web/Angular**: Set up Angular CLI project with TypeScript and testing
• **API/Express**: Create Express.js server with TypeScript, middleware, and routing
• **API/FastAPI**: Set up FastAPI with Python, Pydantic models, and async support
• **Mobile/React Native**: Configure React Native with navigation and development tools
• **Desktop/Electron**: Set up Electron with renderer and main process structure
• **CLI/Node**: Create Node.js CLI with commander.js and proper packaging
• **Library/NPM**: Set up library with TypeScript, rollup/webpack, and publishing config

4. **Development Environment Setup**

• Configure package manager (npm, yarn, pnpm) with proper package.json
• Set up TypeScript configuration with strict mode and path mapping
• Configure linting with ESLint and language-specific rules
• Set up code formatting with Prettier and pre-commit hooks
• Add EditorConfig for consistent coding standards

5. **Testing Infrastructure**

• Install and configure testing framework (Jest, Vitest, Pytest, etc.)
• Set up test directory structure and example tests
• Configure code coverage reporting
• Add testing scripts to package.json/makefile

6. **Build and Development Tools**

• Configure build system (Vite, webpack, rollup, etc.)
• Set up development server with hot reloading
• Configure environment variable management
• Add build optimization and bundling

7. **CI/CD Pipeline**

• Create GitHub Actions workflow for testing and deployment
• Set up automated testing on pull requests
• Configure automated dependency updates with Dependabot
• Add status badges to README

8. **Documentation and Quality**

• Generate comprehensive README with installation and usage instructions
• Create CONTRIBUTING.md with development guidelines
• Set up API documentation generation (JSDoc, Sphinx, etc.)
• Add code quality badges and shields

9. **Security and Best Practices**

• Configure security scanning with npm audit or similar
• Set up dependency vulnerability checking
• Add security headers for web applications
• Configure environment-specific security settings

10. **Project Validation**

• Verify all dependencies install correctly
• Run initial build to ensure configuration is working
• Execute test suite to validate testing setup
• Check linting and formatting rules are applied
• Validate that development server starts successfully
• Create initial commit with proper project structure
