I'm definitely going to check this out... It's such a pain to start developing an Android app from scratch, especially if you aren't familiar with mobile development.
Yup, this is exactly why I released it. I feel the same way about starting a new project: A way of "Ahhh crap, I have to set this thing up for the next few days" before I can even become productive.
This is awesome. Kicks the butt of the ios boilerplate project.
How does he do the project generation?
The project generation is quite naive actually. Its just a brute force search and replace with regex. Then the folder creation is done by using the package name as the folder structure, creating the folders, then copying the updated files to the new directory and wiping the old one. Its all in node.
