skuba can initialise a new project from an externally-hosted template. This allows you to build and maintain template repositories with your own preferred baseline of boilerplate code and configuration.

seek

This option is only available to SEEK employees with SSH access to SEEK-Jobs/skuba-templates.

Select seek → when running skuba init. skuba will fetch the list of available templates directly from SEEK-Jobs/skuba-templates and present them as a selection menu. Once you choose a template, it is downloaded via SSH and applied to your new project.

? Select a template: (Use arrow keys)
❯ seek →
