Ironman is CLI tool that provides a way to define and share project templates hosted in git repositories. Install and generate a new document based project using Ironman Templates in seconds.

• Develop Ironman based templates.
• Manage local Ironman templates from remote sources (install, uninstall, upgrade) (git repositories)
• Generate new projects based on ironman you or someone else created.

You are about to start a new project, with a common project structure, and few dozens of files. Every time you have to change titles/subtitles, app identifiers, docs URL’s to get started. If you work with one or more teams, how do you enforce common standards?. This is a repetitive task, how would you solve it?

An option is a git repo, everyone can clone their own copy and make the necessary to adapt it to their needs. From my experience that can lead to people not knowing the changes, they need to do to get a custom “correct” project. Also, outdated templates no one knows they even exist.

Ironman provides a declarative framework for you to define Ironman Templates. You can host Ironman templates in a git repository.

Ironman Templates can be managed (installed, upgraded, removed) using the Ironman CLI. With an installed template you can generate new projects many times as you want in a repetitive and reliable way. Share a template using a standard git URL.
