Terox

Terox is a small, cross-platform CLI for scaffolding new projects from templates. Point it at a GitHub repository or a local directory, answer a few prompts, and it renders a ready-to-edit project into the output folder of your choice. Single Go binary — no language runtime to install on the target machine.

Why it exists

Every new client project at Weburz starts the same way: the same lint config, the same CI workflow, the same directory layout. Copy-pasting a "starter repo" and find-and-replacing the project name gets old fast, and the JavaScript scaffolders all assume a Node toolchain is already on the machine.

1. One binary, any machine. No runtime, no install graph — drop it on a fresh laptop or a CI runner and it works.
2. Templates are just directories. A terox.json manifest declares the variables; filenames and file contents are rendered with standard Go template tokens like {{.project_name}}.
3. GitHub-native. Scaffold straight from a public repo ref — no cloning first.

Install

macOS / Linux (Homebrew):

brew install weburz/tap/terox

Windows (Scoop):

scoop bucket add weburz https://github.com/weburz/scoop-bucket
scoop install weburz/terox

Binaries are also on the releases page, or build from source with go install github.com/weburz/terox@latest (Go 1.23+).

Usage

Scaffold from a local template:

terox scaffold ./templates/demo --output ./my-project

Or straight from GitHub — Weburz publishes its official templates as a monorepo at weburz/terox-templates, where each top-level directory is a template:

terox list weburz/terox-templates
terox scaffold weburz/terox-templates/npm-package --output ./my-package

Terox prompts for the variables declared in the template's terox.json and writes the rendered result. For CI or scripted use, skip the prompts:

terox scaffold ./templates/demo \
  --output ./my-project \
  --set project_name=portfolio \
  --set license=MIT \
  --non-interactive
