cobra-add — add a command to a Cobra Application 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

cobra add [OPTIONS]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so, cobra add is literally gonna create a brand new command for you. like, it makes the whole thing: the command itself, a license, and the appropriate structure for a Cobra-based CLI application, and then it registers that baby to its parent (which defaults to RootCmd, iykyk). 🫶

and here's the tea, bestie: if you want your command to be public, you gotta pass in the command name with an initial uppercase letter. no cap. 👑

Example: cobra add server -> resulting in a new cmd/server.go ✨
