<p align="center"> <img src="/logo.png" alt="butler" style="max-width:100%;"> </p>Butler is an automatation tool to scaffold new projects in only a few seconds.
We provide a powerful interactive cli. When you create a project template you
can create a Survey
. Surveys are used to collect
informations from the users to generate individual templates. Beside
templating we also plan to integrate common commands for popular Project Management
Tools like Jira, Confluence in Butler.
Bootstraping projects should be fun!
