Quick Start

• /template issue for general issues
• /template feature to Propose a Feature in issue

Forgot command? Don't worry. Bot will help you :100:

Why

We create issues for different purposes:

Report a Bug, Propose a Feature, Asking for Help ...

But we are used to setup one ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md for our workflow.
So Template Bot is built to generate templates for different scenarios.
