Showcase and portfolio

--showcase, SHOWCASE.mdx, and package.json portfolio metadata for demos and kitsunekode.in sync.

1 min read

--showcase (TypeScript fullstack)

When enabled on typescript-fullstack, the CLI keeps demo-oriented routes and writes SHOWCASE.mdx at the project root for portfolio sync.

terminal
bun run dev:cli -- my-app --yes --preset=typescript-fullstack --showcase --dir=../projects

Use --no-showcase for a lean product tree—capability cleanup removes demo apps, landing pages, and related components.

--live-demo (TypeScript fullstack)

Relay Run, live chat, lattice, guest auth, and /live ship only when you opt in:

terminal
bun run dev:cli -- my-demo --yes --preset=typescript-fullstack --live-demo --dir=../projects

--live-demo is independent of --showcase. The default fullstack template is minimal; the addon under apps/cli/src/templates/addons/live-demo/ overlays server, web, auth, store, and seed scripts so generated projects build without dogfood-only marketing imports.

This marketing site

/live on arche.dev is a dogfood preview in this template repo—not part of the default generated scaffold. Production builds of generated apps only include /live when you pass --live-demo.

Portfolio metadata

Every serious monorepo scaffold updates root package.json:

terminal
"portfolio": {
  "slug": "my-app",
  "title": "My App"
}

Sync workflow: template repo docs/portfolio-sync.md and apps/cli/CLI-SPEC.md.

Examples on the website

Static snippets that mirror generated wiring live at /examples—useful before you scaffold.
