(Quick Reference) ## create-app ### Purpose The starting point for Grails. This command creates a Grails application using the name specifed by the user. A subdirectory within the directory the command was executed from is then created based on the specified application name. ### Examples Create an application in a directory that matches the application name:
    $ grails create-app bookstore
    $ cd bookstore
Create an application in the current directory:
    $ mkdir bookstore
    $ cd bookstore
    $ grails create-app --inplace
Create an application customizing the profile and features (since Grails 3.1):
    $ grails create-app bookstore --profile web --features mongodb,asset-pipeline
    $ grails create-app bookstore --profile rest-api --features hibernate
Arguments: `profile` - The profile to use to create the application `features` - The features to use when creating the application `inplace` - Whether to create the application within the current directory ### Description The `create-app` command is responsible for creating an application. By default the command will create an application using the "web" profile. For other available profiles use the list-profiles and profile-info commands to find out what profiles are available. For more information on profiles see the Profiles section of the user guide. Usage:
    grails create-app <<name>> [--profile] <<profile name>> [--features] <<FEATURE NAMES>>
