# ArchGenie CLI

A powerful Node.js CLI tool to quickly scaffold project folder structures based on popular software architecture patterns.

---

## Features

- Supports multiple architecture patterns like MVC, MVP, MVVM, PAC, HMVC, Layered, Microservices, Serverless, Clean Architecture, Hexagonal, Onion, REST, GraphQL, gRPC, Event-Driven, CQRS, Pub/Sub, Client-Server, P2P, and more.
- Easily switch between architectures with a simple command.
- Automatically initializes git repo, npm project, installs Express and Nodemon.
- Option to backup or delete existing project files before scaffolding a new structure.
- Helps enforce clean project organization for better maintainability.

## Examples

```

Creates folders for the MVC pattern including models, views, controllers, and related folders.

---

## How it works

- Checks if a previous architecture was scaffolded.
- Prompts you to delete existing files or back them up before creating the new folder structure.
- Initializes git and npm, installs dependencies (`express` and `nodemon`).
- Creates folders and adds basic `.gitignore` and `server.js` files.
