## About
Maka-CLI is a command line tool, which organizes a web application's file structure and automates everyday package installation tasks for various application frameworks
(i.e., React, GraphQL, Rest API, Material-UI, Jasmine / Mocha Tests).  Maka-CLI integrates with MeteorJS for developing high performing and scaling
NodeJS backed applications deployed to on-prem and cloud-based infrastructures.

## Installation

### With Node.js
```
  npm i -g @maka/maka-cli
```

### Without Node.js — standalone executable

Self-contained builds that need no Node.js installed. Extract, and the binary
inside is called `maka`. These links always resolve to the most recent
release, so they never need updating.

The first Meteor command (`maka build`, `run` or `create`) downloads the
Meteor toolchain and a Node runtime for it into `~/.meteor/.maka/runtime/`;
that happens once. Every other command works immediately with nothing to
download.

## Getting Started
```
  maka create KickTiresApp

  cd KickTiresApp

  maka run

```

## Documentation

Run the `--help` command with any maka generator or comamnd for more information:

```
  maka --help

  maka generate --help

  maka g:route -h
```
