Could we add creating projects from the command line using the Projucer? A single script could then be used to create projects, setup git & submodules, etc

I would also welcome a CLI version of Projucer.

Adding/ removing files and folders would also personally be quite useful. The Projucer is great to use as a cross-platform build system but moving out of the IDE every time I want to move files around or create a new file adds that little bit of context switching

The projucer can be called from the command line. Here are the options available.

I don’t want to be that guy, but… CMake is probably a better option these days.
