CLI Feature: Design Pattern Templates for .NET Projects

[srosama]

This feature addresses a common pain point in .NET development by providing pre-configured templates for various design patterns. Simply input the desired design pattern, and the CLI will generate a project structured according to best practices. Whether you're starting a new project or refactoring an existing one, this tool ensures uniformity and adherence to established design principles.

Key Features:

Instantly create projects using Clean Architecture, Domain-Driven Design (DDD), Singleton, and more.
Eliminate the need for manual setup and configuration, saving time and reducing errors.
Foster consistency across projects by enforcing standardized design patterns.
Enhance code quality and maintainability by starting with a solid architectural foundation.

Hi @srosama,

I'm a little confused by this feature request. We already provide a set of pre-configured templates for various design patterns. They may or may not follow the particular design patterns you're thinking of—though we try to make them well-styled, every programmer has their own set of preferred best practices.

You can see a list of the templates we currently support using dotnet new list:
