Bankstack

Docs

Alpha CLI

Install and run the current create-bankstack alpha with explicit alpha tags.

Use the npm alpha dist-tag for the current alpha. The docs prefer the explicit alpha tag until the project intentionally promotes a stable release.

pnpm dlx create-bankstack@alpha my-bankstack-app
npx create-bankstack@alpha my-bankstack-app

For a non-interactive run, add --yes:

pnpm dlx create-bankstack@alpha my-bankstack-app --yes

Provider AI tooling guidance is optional:

pnpm dlx create-bankstack@alpha my-bankstack-app --ai-tools recommended

Useful Flags

  • --name <name> sets the package and workspace name used in generated metadata.
  • --ai-tools <selection> writes AI_TOOLS.md guidance for provider-maintained skills and MCP docs. Use recommended, none, or a comma-separated list of supabase, cloudflare, astro, and svelte.
  • --yes accepts safe defaults for omitted prompts.
  • --no-install skips dependency installation.
  • --no-git skips git initialization.
  • --force allows rendering into a non-empty target directory.

Requirements

  • Node.js 22.12.0 or newer.
  • pnpm 10 or newer for the generated workspace.

The generated workspace expects pnpm. Use npm or pnpm to run the create command, then use pnpm inside the generated project.

The --ai-tools option writes reference notes only. It does not run provider installers, write MCP credentials, authenticate with hosted services, or provision Cloudflare or Supabase resources.
