scaffold

Overview

Starting a new project involves a lot of repetitive setup: git init, create GitHub repo, add remote, create an Obsidian hub note, set up the Python venv or Rust workspace. scaffold automates all of this behind a single command.

It's built around the specific dev environment used across all projects in this portfolio — storage layout on two drives, shared vcpkg and Python venv paths, and Obsidian as the primary documentation layer.

What It Does

• Initializes a git repo in the correct storage location
• Creates a GitHub remote via the GitHub CLI
• Creates an Obsidian hub note in 01-projects/ with correct frontmatter
• Sets up language-specific boilerplate (Python venv, Rust workspace, etc.)
• Configures symlinks to shared dependency directories
