Just another generic GitHub repository template for all 😄

Overview

In June of 2019 GitHub announced repository templates, which allow for people/organizations to use template repositories as a boilerplate to quickly generate new GitHub repositories. I wanted to put together a (mostly) language agnostic repository template for my own projects, and hope that others may benefit from this work.

Features

This repository template includes;

Usage

The steps to use this template repository in your own projects are;

  1. Create a new repository using this template
  2. Rename this README.md file to something else, such as TEMPLATE_README.md
  3. Rename the provided BOILERPLATE_README.md to README.md
  4. Replace instances of YOUR_* in your new README.md to customize the shields, social links, etc to yourself and your project
    1. YOUR_NAME - Your name (ie, John Doe)
    2. YOUR_GITHUB_NAME - Your GitHub user name (ie, github.com/<user_name>)
    3. YOUR_GITHUB_REPO - Your GitHub repository name (ie, github.com/<user_name>/<repository_name>)

    7. YOUR_DISCORD_INVITE_LINK - Invite link to your Discord server steps here
  5. Customize the rest of the repository to your hearts content
  6. Start creating!
