CLI · Gru docs

Public packaging and scaffold tool under cmd/gru. Prefer this over ad-hoc scripts.

go run ./cmd/gru <command> …
# after install onto PATH:
gru <command> …

new

Scaffold an app directory from the hello or webviewhello templates.

go run ./cmd/gru new myapp
go run ./cmd/gru new myapp --webview

Flag	Template
(default)	Native sample based on `cmd/hello`
`--webview`	FillClient WebView shell (`cmd/webviewhello`)

Requires WebView2 Runtime for --webview on Windows.

Compile a known product into dist/.

go run ./cmd/gru build hello [-o path]
go run ./cmd/gru build webviewhello -webview2 [-o path]
go run ./cmd/gru build demo [-webview2] [-o path]

Product	What it builds
`hello`	Native sample
`webviewhello`	WebView sample; use `-webview2` for live host
`demo`	Curated demo launcher (`-tags grudemo`)

Default output lands under dist/. See gru build -h for platform args.

Zip a built product with the fonts and assets it needs at runtime.

go run ./cmd/gru package hello windows
go run ./cmd/gru package webviewhello windows
go run ./cmd/gru package demo windows

Stages fonts/assets needed at runtime into a release zip. Prefer packaging after a successful build of the same product.

More smoke detail lives in the repo’s BUILD.md.
