 * This file is for setting up a project when this package was installed as a global npm module

 * npm install -g the-posting-platform
 *
 * Scripts currently offered:
 *
 * create-posting-platform
 * cd my-projects
 * create-posting-platform my-new-app
 * currently it copies files into the users source code to replace their nextjs boilerplate
 *
 * it could act more like a library where it just exports modules used by another app
 * but for now it provides a lot of source code for you. perhaps the --library option could be added.
