Interactive Wizard

The DevFlow interactive wizard auto-detects your stack, guides you through selecting modules (Husky, ESLint, Vitest, CI/CD, Docker…), previews all changes, and sets everything up in one go.

Presets

Skip manual module selection with DevFlow presets. Choose Minimal, Recommended, or Full — each preset is tailored to your detected stack (React, Next.js, Vue, NestJS, Node.js) and installs the right tools automatically.
