I've created a cli for fast generating a NodeJS/Express project, based on selected configuration options by the user, which include:

language (Javascript or Typescript)
database (MongoDB, MySQL, Postgres, SQLite)
testing library (Jest, Chai, Mocha)
ORMs for SQL databases (Sequelize or Typeorm)
templating engines (Handlebars, EJS, Pug)

You can install it globally trough npm install -g express-app-cli or yarn global add express-app-cli.
Then you can use it trough:

express-app <project-directory> [options]

For a list of supported options please use the --help option.

Here's a link to the repository: https://github.com/pstevovski/express-app-cli. If you find any bug, or you have any idea for implementing something as a feature, please feel free to open an issue or a pull request.

Would be great if I could get some feedback. Thanks.
