Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Just copy the template, replace the placeholder values, and run npm install.
Brunch is a tool for building websites and web apps, and this repo provides a starter template for making add-ons (called "plugins") that extend what Brunch can do. Instead of building a plugin from scratch, you copy this ready-made template and fill in the blanks. The template uses placeholders like {{NAME}} and {{DESCRIPTION}} that you replace with your own text. For example, if you wanted to create a plugin that helps Brunch process a new image format, you'd swap in your plugin's name and a short description of what it does. Once those values are filled in, the basic structure is ready to go. People who would use this are developers who already work with Brunch and want to add support for something the tool doesn't handle out of the box. For instance, if Brunch doesn't natively compile a particular stylesheet language or optimize a specific file type, a developer could use this boilerplate to scaffold a plugin that fills that gap, then share it with the community. The README itself is intentionally sparse, it's a template, after all, not a finished product. It shows the basic usage pattern (installing via npm) and leaves the rest to whoever picks it up. With only a handful of stars and minimal documentation, this is a small utility project aimed at people who already know what they're doing in the Brunch ecosystem and just want a quick starting point rather than a hand-held walkthrough.
