  "create-solana-dapp": {
    // These instructions will be returned to the user after installation
    "instructions": [
      "Run Anchor commands:",
      // Adding a '+' will make the line bold and '{pm}' is replaced with the package manager
      "+{pm} run anchor build | test | localnet | deploy",
    ],
    // Rename is a map of terms to rename
    "rename": {
      // Rename every instance of counter
      "counter": {
        // With the name of the project
        "to": "{{name}}",
        // In the following paths
        "paths": ["anchor", "src"],
      },
    },
    // Check versions and give a warning if it's not installed or the version is lower
