Yeoman generator for SharePoint - lets you quickly set up a project with sensible defaults for pulling and pushing files between SharePoint asset library and local projects sources.
Generated project allows immediately start developing SharePoint client-side solutions in Visual Studio Code or any other editor with instant publishing changes to SharePoint web site and downloading specific assets from SP Document library folder to local project assets which can be enforced with Git Diff algorithm for tracking changes.
SPPP generated projects suite perfectly for SPA development scenarious having local serve workbench with SharePoint API proxy server intergated from OOTB. Starting a local server your app refreshes instantly on changes using hot reload and incremental build at the same time the app is fully powered with real data from the API without any extra configuration.
React, PnPjs, Office UI Fabric, TypeScript, SCSS, Linting rules, polyfills, Webpack bundling, Live server, SharePoint interactive connection, , all of these just work from the start. The batteries are included, but maybe you need congifuration changes? No problem, just override or provide yours, or extend a task, this is a part of the design.
Don't need React or Office UI Fabric? Don't worry, these guys are installed as a presets only when you decided to.
