Yeoman is web-scaffolding tool for modern web apps. It is an open source tool that works like Visual Studio templates using the command-line option. The Yeoman command-line tool, yo, works alongside a Yeoman generator.
Yeoman generates a complete project with all the necessary files to run the application, just like VS IDE. Read through the link http://yeoman.io/ to know more.
For installing Yeoman, ensure that NodeJS and NPM are installed from the link in the software prerequisites given earlier.
Open the command line to run the command to install Yeoman (yo). The option -g installs the npm packages globally so that it can be used from any path.
npm install -g yo
Once Yeoman is installed successfully, we need to install the ASP.NET Core generator for yo. It will help in project creation and the scaffolding of the different components...
