[![GitHub Build Status ](https://github.com/cisagov/skeleton-generic/workflows/build/badge.svg )](https://github.com/cisagov/skeleton-generic/actions)
This is a generic skeleton project that can be used to quickly get a
new [cisagov ](https://github.com/cisagov ) GitHub project started.
This skeleton project contains [licensing information ](LICENSE ), as
well as [pre-commit hooks ](https://pre-commit.com ) and
[GitHub Actions ](https://github.com/features/actions ) configurations
appropriate for the major languages that we use.
In many cases you will instead want to use one of the more specific
skeleton projects derived from this one.
## New Repositories from a Skeleton ##
Please see our [Project Setup guide ](https://github.com/cisagov/development-guide/tree/develop/project_setup ) for step-by-step instructions on how to start a new repository from a skeleton. This will save you time and effort when configuring a new repository!
