### Overview

This is a blazing fast ⚡, command line license generator for your open source projects written in Rust.

I know that GitHub has a great GUI to add licenses to projects but I always found myself doing too much work. First you have to go to GitHub, create a file, type 'LICENSE', pick a license, push it and then pull it locally. With this you can just generate the license locally and push it to GitHub.

I had not written some Rust code in a while so I made this simple project to brush up my Rust skills a bit (still very beginner).

### Installation

#### Using Cargo

```bash
cargo install gen-license
```

#### Using AUR (Arch/Arch-based Linux Distros)

```
yay -S gen-license
```

#### From source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/nexxeln/license-generator.git
cd license-generator
cargo install --path .
```

If you don't have cargo installed, you can download the executable from the [releases](https://github.com/nexxeln/license-generator/releases) section.

### Usage

```bash
gen-license
```

### Contributing
- Fork the repository
- Create a branch
  ```bash
  git checkout -b fix/amazingFix
  ```
- Commit your changes and push to your branch
  ```bash
  git commit -m "made an amazingFix"
  git push origin fix/amazingFix
  ```
- Open a pull request
