Note: We are regularly asked whether we can add or take away features. If a change is good enough to have a positive impact on all users, we are happy to consider it.
If not, generator-webapp
is fork-friendly and you can always maintain a custom version which you npm install && npm link
to continue using via yo webapp
or a name of your choosing.
