npx gitignore

This content originally appeared on DEV Community and was authored by Nick Taylor

I've done this a few times on a live stream and there is always someone unaware of this so I wanted to share.

Assuming you have Node.js installed on your machine, you can run npx gitignore your_language, e.g. npx gitignore node, and it will generate a gitignore file for you for the given language.

Here's a clip from my stream today showing it in action. Maybe you'll find it useful in your next project!
