Add create-react-admin

[djhi]

Problem

It can be long and confusing to start a new react-admin project.

Solution

A CLI that bootstrap a project after asking what dataProvider, authProvider and resources should be added.

This PR introduces a first basic version of this tool.

Tasks

• Initialize a new TS project using Vite
• Supports a few data providers
• Supports local auth provider
• Generate resources using guessers
• Build README from templates

create-admin-app-fakerest.webm

create-admin-app-json.webm

Could you add a screencast of the current UI? Also, tests fail.

With the new create-react-admin we can also consider deprecate the create-react-app in the documentation, because even facebook is no longer promoting using this to bootstrap a new project on the new react.dev website .

Indeed, even though that's not related at all.

Code seems good, and I learned some tricks with it so thanks! 🙂

Could you add a Readme though, and a makefile target to build it?

you should support projectName being an absolute path.

E.g. I tried with projectName='~/workspaces/my-test-admin' and it failed with

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, mkdir '/home/user/workspaces/react-admin/packages/create-react-admin/home/user/workspaces/my-test-admin'

Nice to have. V2 imo

I have a warning in the console after completing the wizard:

Warning: Each child in a list should have a unique "key" prop.

It seems to be located in the (cli) App component.

Another thing I saw is that we are using the full path as the package's name in the generated package.json.
We should only use the folder's name instead.
(my-test-admin in this example)

Love it! This really streamlines the developer onboarding.
