Architecture

Velocity uses two CLI tools:

velocity	Homebrew	Create projects, manage config
vel	Built from source	Dev server, migrations, generators

When you run velocity new, it:

1. Scaffolds a new project
2. Installs dependencies
3. Runs migrations
4. Builds the ./vel binary
5. Starts development servers

Configuration

Set defaults for new projects:

velocity config set default.database postgres
velocity config set default.cache redis
velocity config set default.auth true

Configuration stored in ~/.vel/config.yaml.
