I got tired of copy-pasting the same Express folder structure every project, so I built this

Every time I start a new Node.js project I spend the first 20 minutes making the same folders, writing the same database connection, copy-pasting the same middleware. So I built a CLI that does it in one command.

beb generate <project-name>

Gives you a full Express + MongoDB structure with auth middleware, error handling, and TypeScript or CommonJS β€” your choice.
Still early but it works. Would love feedback from anyone who's felt the same pain.
