# Rails App Generator > Create new Rails Application with custom opinions ## Installation Add this line to your application's Gemfile: ```ruby gem 'rails_app_generator' ``` And then execute: ```bash bundle install ``` Or install it yourself as: ```bash gem install rails_app_generator ``` ## Notes You can use rails_app_generator to create Rails 7 applications You can use rails_app_generator with ruby 2.7 or 3.1 Rails new uses a batteries included approach, this means that you get everything and if you don't want a feature you need to turn it off explicitly using --skip-feature I hope to change the focus in this project so that you get very minimal installation and then you turn on what you want explicitly. Templates for rails are separated from templates for addons ## Stories ### Main Story As a Developer, I want to create new Rails application with flexible opinions so that I can build different rails proof of concepts See all [stories](./STORIES.md) ## Usage See all [usage examples](./USAGE.md) ## Development Checkout the repo ```bash git clone https://github.com/klueless-io/rails_app_generator ``` After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment. ```bash bin/console Aaa::Bbb::Program.execute() # => "" ``` `rails_app_generator` is setup with Guard, run `guard`, this will watch development file changes and run tests automatically, if successful, it will then run rubocop for style quality. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, build the gem and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org). ```bash rake publish rake clean ``` ## Contributing Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at https://github.com/klueless-io/rails_app_generator.
