Skelly CLI

Skelly includes a lightweight, zero-dependency command-line utility. The CLI can bootstrap fresh projects from templates or automate integrating skeleton styling sheets into existing repositories.

Scaffold a fresh project

Run the following command to boot an interactive scaffolding prompt. It will bootstrap a fresh, optimized Next.js App Router project preconfigured with Skelly loading routes and adapters:

npx skelly create my-awesome-app --next
cd my-awesome-app
npm run dev

Integrate into existing codebase

To auto-configure Skelly inside an existing codebase:

npx skelly init

The installer will auto-detect your project manager (npm, pnpm, yarn, bun) and framework (Next.js, Vite), install the package, inject style rules into your global CSS stylesheets, and create initial loading indicators.
