Welcome to placecode.io - Create & publish dynamic templates effortlessly


Your one-stop solution to effortlessly create dynamic and customizable boilerplate templates for your next project. Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting your coding journey, placecode empowers you to focus on what matters most - your application's unique logic.

The Problem

Starting a new coding project from scratch can be time-consuming and tedious, often requiring hours of boilerplate code before getting to the core functionality. While static starter projects offer some relief, they lack the flexibility to cater to individual developer preferences and project requirements. This limitation restricts developers from customizing the template to fit their exact needs.

The Solution

Enter placecode - a powerful npm CLI tool and web app designed to revolutionize your coding experience. Our mission is to eliminate the hassle of boilerplate code by enabling developers to create and use dynamic templates effortlessly and rapidly.

How it Works

  • Dynamic Templates: With placecode, you can create dynamic templates using simple comment markers. These markers allow you to specify which code snippets should execute based on the features you want to include in your project.

  • Web App (placecode.io): Our web app, placecode.io, serves as a central repository for dynamic templates created by the development community. Here, you can browse and select templates that suit your project's needs.

  • Customization Made Easy: Using the selected template as a starting point, you can fine-tune your project by choosing the specific features you want to include. Our intuitive interface generates a CLI command based on your selections.

  • Effortless CLI Integration: The same CLI tool used to create templates also enables you to fetch and process templates shared by others. Running the generated command within your project location will create a tailored project with your desired features.
