Features

Built for developer velocity

Every feature designed to eliminate friction between idea and running code.

One Command, Any Stack

Run npx scafix and pick your stack interactively. Vite, Next.js, Express, or npm-package — same consistent interface every time.

Official CLI Orchestration

Scafix delegates to official CLIs like create-vite and create-next-app where possible, so you always get the canonical project structure.

Instant Project Setup

Dependencies installed, Git initialized, dev server ready. Go from zero to running code in seconds, not minutes.

Built-in Add-ons

Automatically configure Tailwind CSS (v3 or v4) and shadcn/ui after scaffolding Vite or Next.js projects. No manual setup steps.

Flexible Package Managers

Choose npm, pnpm, yarn, or bun. Scafix adapts the scaffolding commands and lock files to your preferred package manager.

Extensible Architecture

Each stack is a self-contained adapter. Adding new stacks or custom templates requires no changes to core CLI logic.
