Creating a Project

synamic

You will get the synamic shell. To initialize your project, run the following command:

init

It will create the directory and the necessary startup files for you.

Directory structure:

1. content: primarily for keeping your markdown contents (by default with .md and .markdown extension). All other files will be considered as static files, except for the files that start with a dot (.)- files end with .meta.txt are meta files (primarily for configuration purpose). .filename.meta.txt are for file meta and .meta.txt are for directory meta.

2. static: for static files.

3. models: for models. Currently you should define the default model with file name: text.model.txt
