• Interactive Scaffolding: Generate CRUD, models, and schemas in seconds.
• Docker Integration: Automated Dockerfile and docker-compose.yaml generation.
• Feature Adders: Easily add Auth, Databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB), or Redis to existing projects.
• Production Ready: Structured, type-checked, and linted codebases out of the box.
