Introducing CodeBaker

I'm happy to share CodeBaker, a JetBrains plugin I've been building to end copy, paste and replace when creating repetitive structures.

The idea is simple: a template consists of real source files and folders that live in your own repository. Your IDE highlights and checks them like any other code, and every time you generate, you review the result in the IDE's diff viewer before anything is written, so you can regenerate without losing your edits.

CodeBaker gives you several ways to make templates dynamic while keeping their source syntax valid and fully understood by your IDE. It is designed to run across JetBrains IDEs and work with different programming languages.

CodeBaker 0.9 is the first public beta. It is still young, and I would love to hear what works, what feels rough, and what's missing.

Start with the Getting Started guide, and send me your feedback at info@codebaker.dev.
