Protem is a CLI where there is a set of projects to use, Protem will handle installing the node dependencies for the project (unless configured not to) along with any other requirements needed.

Protem was made for convinence and ease-of-use. It gives you a starter template for a variety of projects, ranging from Discord bots (using Discord.js v12) to Express apps, and much more.

The file structure is already setup as well, with a clear description with what goes where and why in the FILE_STRUCTURE.md file. Protem also checks if the version is outdated to the latest version, and if so, notifys you that it is and that you should update. It also has a list of changes, but this is false by default.

Everything is optional in the CLI, if all is left blank, it will create a "Hello world!" project.

create-template | default: true | short: T
Enable or disable if you want to actually create a template, most of the time you won't update this unless you want to check updates.

Specify if you want to check for updates.

list-changes | default: false | short: C
