# create-include

A tool for interactively configuring the `files` field in your npm package's package.json.

## Usage

Run the following command in your project directory:
npm init include

This will guide you through an interactive process to configure which files and directories should be included in your npm package. Selected files will be added to the `files` field in your package.json.

## Features

1. Automatically includes essential files: `dist`, `package.json`, `README.md`, `LICENSE`
2. Supports adding custom files or directories (default: no)
3. Smart merging with existing files configuration (automatic deduplication)
4. Simple and intuitive interactive interface

## How it works

1. The tool automatically includes default essential files without confirmation
2. Asks if you need to add other custom files (default: no)
3. If you choose to add, prompts for filename input with validation
4. Allows multiple custom file additions until you finish
5. Updates package.json with the final selected files in the `files` field
