.gitkeep file is created

[okahijiki]

After doing truffle init, I get the following instead of the normal file structure.
What should I do?

That is the default structure of truffle init
The files .gitkeep allows git to track those folders even if they are empty.

If you want an "example" project, you must use truffle unbox <box-name>, u can see the docs over here

Hey Luis,

I'm following a tutorial in YT and I got to a point where after setting up some basic settings, the next step is to "truffle init" so I get the contracts, migrations, test folders as well as the truffle-config.js file.

The problem is that I'm getting .gitkeep files instead of the actual files. Then I tried the "truffle unbox /path_of_the_folder" and had not success; any suggestion?
