🚀 Express Manager

"Because manually setting up an Express project is soooo 2015."

Create and manage Express.js projects with style — directly from your VSCode sidebar.


🧠 What is this?

Express Manager is a Visual Studio Code extension that lets you:

  • ✨ Generate new Express projects in seconds
  • 📁 Create routes, controllers, and models from a friendly interface
  • 🖱 Run your server with one click
  • 🔁 Switch between project creation and management modes
  • 😎 Look cool while doing it

⚙ Features

✅ Create a full Express app structure (with or without TypeScript)
✅ Optional Git init & dependencies installation
✅ Choose if you want middlewares like cors or morgan
✅ Auto-generate .env, tsconfig, package.json, and entry points
✅ One-click route/controller/model generation
✅ Terminal launch with npx ts-node or node
✅ Uses project templates you can tweak!


🎨 Why use Express Manager?

"Setting up an Express project should take seconds, not 17 StackOverflow tabs and 3 coffees."

Stop writing boilerplate. Start building APIs. All without leaving the comfort of VSCode.
