ionic-everywhere new

Scaffold a new project.

bunx @involvex/ionic-everywhere new my-app
bunx create-ionic-everywhere my-app -t with-ai
ionic-everywhere new my-app --yes
ionic-everywhere new my-app --template blank --yes
ionic-everywhere new my-app --no-electron   # web + Android only
ionic-everywhere templates                  # list named templates

With a global install (bun add -g @involvex/ionic-everywhere), create-ionic-everywhere [dir] is an alias for new.

Named templates (-t / --template)

Expo-style catalog (orthogonal to --layout / --styling / --theme):

tabs	default	Tabs + sidebar Ionic React starter (default)
blank	minimal	Minimal Ionic React starter
with-vue	vue	Tabs + sidebar Ionic Vue starter
with-ai	ai	Chat UI + OpenCode v2 / OpenAI-compatible backend
with-localai	localai	On-device LLM (llama.cpp) + WebLLM for browser

Options

Flag	Meaning
--name <name>	Display name (no & < > " ' \ or line breaks — they break Android's strings.xml)
--app-id <id>	Reverse-DNS id, e.g. com.example.myapp
--pm <pm>	Package manager for the generated project: bun, npm, pnpm, yarn
-t, --template <id>	Named template (see table above)
--layout <tabs|drawer|sidebar>	Navigation layout (default: tabs)
--styling <ionic-css|tailwind|shadcn|kumo>	Styling engine (default: ionic-css)
--theme <light-dark|hacker|monokai>	Color theme (default: light-dark)
--no-android	Skip the Android platform
--no-electron	Skip the desktop (Electron) platform
--no-install	Skip dependency install and platform generation
--no-git	Skip git init
--tests	Add a Vitest testing scaffold (interactive default: yes; --yes default: no)
--keep-on-failure	Keep a partially created project when a step fails instead of offering to remove it
--yes	Accept defaults, no prompts

The scaffold writes a .ionic-everywhere.json manifest recording your options. Keep it in version control — upgrade and list rely on it.
