Features

Live Search

Live Search is a tool that lets you narrow down your search for the boilerplate you need, while also remaining inside the TUI at all times saving you time.

Live Search Features:

  • One way to use Live Search is to simply type a search term such as php, this will then show you all the boilerplates with php in their name
  • TAG: Tag allows you to search each boilerplate for a specific catagory of boilerplates (e.g. TAG:backend), using multiple tags may narrow down your search further

More methods to narrow down your search may be coming in the future so keep your eyes out!

Command Line Queries

You can also use queries directly from the command line to refine your search:
