A minimal, interactive Rust boilerplate exporter for GitHub and AUR.

rustkick helps developers instantly generate deployment-ready folders for Rust projects — whether for publishing to GitHub or preparing AUR packages. It includes a simple guided CLI to set up everything you need.

• 🔧 Copies your existing Rust project's source and Cargo.toml
• 📁 Supports custom extra files (like config.json, .env, etc.)
• 📜 Optional MIT License
• 🧠 Friendly CLI prompts for customization
• 🎯 --mode git for GitHub setup
• 🌹 --mode aur for AUR packaging

cargo run -- --mode git

Or for AUR-ready packaging:

cargo run -- --mode aur

You'll be prompted for:

• Deployment folder name
• Whether to include a license
• Extra files to include (e.g. hi.txt, .env)
• Optional setup tips (Git/AUR commands)

cargo run -- --mode git
👌 📦 Enter deployment folder name · Enter deployment folder name \xb7 rustkick
👌 📜 Add MIT LICENSE? · Add MIT LICENSE? \xb7 yes
👌 📁 Include additional files? · Include additional files? \xb7 yes
👌 📜 Enter files · Enter files \xb7 .env, config.json
👌 💡 Tips? · Tips? \xb7 yes

This creates a rustkick/ folder with:

rustkick/
├── Cargo.toml
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── .env
├── config.json
└── src/
