🚀 export-code-pdf-cli

📖 Description

CLI to export the content of code files matching a regular expression into a single PDF file. This project leverages Puppeteer to generate the PDF from code files and Ora to display progress spinners while processing.

✨ Key Benefit: Exporting all your project files into a PDF makes it easier to import the entire project into ChatGPT as a single PDF file, allowing you to ask questions or get help on the entire project at once.
