What is Runow?

Runow is a front-end template manager designed to simplify the build process of front-end projects. Through Runow, common front-end templates can be quickly applied to help front-end developers build the basic framework and focus on business code.

Why is it named Runow ?

Because after using create runow, the selected technology stack template will be automatically downloaded for you, and the corresponding dependencies will be installed. You only need to npm run dev to run the project, which reduces the number of N things that need to be done before running the project. Of course, run..now you can also write less, haha.

Use Cases

In front-end development, it is very easy to apply the current mainstream technology stack, but before starting a project, unless you have already opened up an existing project, there are infinite create and install options. Therefore, runow emerged, making it easier to choose create runow between the simple and cumbersome create and install options.

It should be noted that Runow does not burden future project planning, does not inject too many dependencies and useless features, and focuses more on building the underlying framework. Therefore, it is not conducive to projects that are eager for quick success.

Compare

Compared to Vite

Anyone who has used vite knows that there is a command called create vite, and yes, runow borrows from the create vite command (tribute), so its usage is the same; But there is a difference between the two Create vite focuses on showcasing the capabilities of the tool, while runow focuses on the application of the template.

• Use create vite to quickly create applications built using the vite tool.
• Use create runow to quickly create applications based on common architecture templates.

Compared to Degit

degit is a great branch download tool, runow is also based on the ability of degit to download remote templates; Using degit makes it easy to download code from various code repositories, so the difference between the two is that degit is used to download remote branch code, and its purpose is to replace commands such as git clone; In addition to downloading remote template code, runow also constrains the code scope and simplifies the extraction of target code in template management.
