A fully function MERN stack generator running on the latest and greatest thats easy to get started with

const path = require('path');
const fs = require('fs');
const Generator = require('yeoman-generator');
const chalk = require('chalk');

module.exports = class extends Generator {
	// The name `constructor` is important here
	constructor(args, opts) {
		// Calling the super constructor is important so our generator is correctly set up
		super(args, opts);

		// Next, add your custom code
		//this.option('babel'); // This method adds support for a `--babel` flag
	}

	async prompting() {
		const gitName = this.user.git.name();

		this.answers = await this.prompt([
			{
				name: 'repoName',
				message: 'Git repo name:'
			},
			{
				name    : 'description',
				message : 'Description:',

			}
		]);

        const { repoName, description, email, name } = this.answers;
		this.tpl = { repoName, description, email, name, };
		this.spawnCommand('git', ['init', '--quiet']);
	}

	writing() {

		this.fs.copyTpl(

			this.destinationRoot(),
			this.tpl,

		);

		const webpackFilePath = path.join(__dirname, './templates/webpack.config.js');

	}
