Alias for creating playground applications and sharing to GitHub/StackBlitz

.zshrc

resetAndOpen(){
  git switch main --discard-changes
  git reset --hard
  git clean -fd
  code .
}

createGitRepo(){
		read -q "REPLY?Are you sure you want to share this publicly? "
		echo
		if [[ $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]; then
			local sourcePath=`pwd`
			rsync -r --exclude=.git --exclude=node_modules . ~/Dev/playground/shared/$1
			cd ~/Dev/playground/shared/$1

			git init
			git add .
			git commit -m 'initial commit'
			gh repo create $1 --public --push --source=. --remote=upstream

			read -q "REPLY?Do you also want to create a StackBlitz? "
			echo
			if [[ $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]; then
				open "https://stackblitz.com/github/YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME/$1"
			else
				gh repo view -w
			fi

			echo "Copy created at $(pwd), remaining in original directory"
			cd $sourcePath
		fi
}

share(){
	if [ -z "$1" ]; then
		read "NAME?What would you like to call this repo? "
		echo
		createGitRepo "$NAME"

alias play-angular="cd ~/Dev/testing/angular && resetAndOpen && ng serve"
alias play-ionic="cd ~/Dev/testing/ionic && git checkout -- . && code . && ionic serve"
alias play-nx="cd ~/Dev/testing/nx && git checkout -- . && code ."

It's a great idea for playing and sharing. It could be a top downloads vscode plugin!!!

Hey @joshuamorony ! I just finished watching your YouTube video, and I’m truly impressed!
I really enjoyed the content and created a .bash version inspired by yours, which includes a command to create Angular projects using npx with a specific Angular version.
Thank you for the inspiration!
