# Yo Vapor

Yeoman is a popular scaffolding tool distributed through NPM. There is a beta Vapor 3 generator maintained in Vapor Community (vapor-community/yeoman) that you can use to create new projects.

## Installation

First, install Yeoman and generator-vapor using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

    npm install -g yo generator-vapor

## Create New Project

Once you have installed Yeoman and the Vapor Generator, you can create a new project.

First, create a new folder and `cd` into it:

    mkdir my-project
    cd my-project

Then, use the `yo` command to generate your new project:

    yo vapor

Follow the instructions to choose which packages you would like to use.
