# ServerGen: CRA Alternative for NodeJS

This weekend I had a chance to dive into my old side project [ServerGen](https://www.npmjs.com/package/servergen). ServerGen is a CRA alternative for NodeJS.

[NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/) is a great framework, and I keep using it for my projects. But I don't like installing the dependencies, writing the same code, and making the MVC directory structure again & again, which is why I created ServerGen, which helps you set up a NodeJS project within seconds.

### What is Currently Supported?

ServerGen currently supports the following features:

- MVC Directory Structure ( Along with .gitignore file )
- Multiple View Engine ( Pug, EJS, HBS )
- Docker Support 
- Express/Node Server Boilerplate
- Mongoose Boilerplate for MongoDB

### What's Yet to Come?

- Swagger Documentation
- Passport Authentication
- Sequalize ORM for MySQL & PostgreSQL

### How to use it?

To use ServerGen, make sure you have NodeJS installed on your system. Install ServerGen by using the command `npm i servergen`
