sbt: Create a new Scala project from an existing Giter8 template hosted on GitHub.
$ sbt new ${scala-hello-world-g8}
try on your machine
The command sbt new ${scala-hello-world-g8}
is used to create a new Scala project using the sbt (Scala Build Tool) with a Giter8 template.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
sbt
: The command-line tool used for building and managing Scala projects.new
: Specifies that you want to create a new project.${scala-hello-world-g8}
: This is the name of the Giter8 template that you want to use. Giter8 is a tool for generating projects from template repositories. In this case,${scala-hello-world-g8}
is a placeholder for the actual Giter8 template's name or URL.
When you run this command, sbt will fetch the specified Giter8 template and use it as a blueprint to create a new Scala project. The template typically includes predefined project structure, configuration files, and code samples to help you get started quickly with a Scala project.
