Able to `create-turbo` without TypeScript

[jeniabrook]

Describe the feature you'd like to request

Have the ability explicitly tell the CLI to bootstrap the app using JavaScript (without TypeScript).

Describe the solution you'd like

A new CLI flag that will opt-in to bootstrap the app without TypeScript.

In case we want the TS be the default:

npx create-turbo@latest --js

In case we want the JS be the default:

npx create-turbo@latest --ts

The later case is also aligned with create-next-app.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Do it manually.

This would honestly bring a lot more people into the monorepo space. Almost all the examples you can find are TS based.

I just tried npx create-turbo@latest --js and it is still created in Typescript, what can I really do to create this turborepo app with JavaScript?

It is not implemented by Turborepo team.

You can do it manually, without npx create-turbo command.
