Versions:
LFR-CLI 3.3.1, released by the independent developer lgdd, is a lightweight, open-source command-line utility written in Go that streamlines the creation and day-to-day administration of Liferay DXP/Portal projects without relying on the official Liferay Developer Studio. Housed in the Development / Build Tools category, the program exposes a concise set of commands that bootstrap new Liferay workspaces, generate service-builder modules, themes, and layout templates, manage Gradle properties, and automate common deployment tasks to local or remote Liferay servers. Because it is delivered as a single native binary for Windows, macOS, and Linux, continuous-integration pipelines and containerized environments can invoke it with minimal overhead, making it equally attractive to back-end Java developers, front-end theme authors, and DevOps engineers who need repeatable, scriptable control over Liferay artifacts. Version 3.3.1 represents the first public milestone, yet the underlying codebase already implements workspace detection, blade-style archetype scaffolding, hot-deploy directory monitoring, and configurable artifact versioning, allowing teams to standardize project structures across multiple repositories. By reading the same workspace-grade settings that Liferay’s official toolchain expects, LFR-CLI interoperates with existing projects while offering faster feedback loops for developers who prefer terminal-centric workflows. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads furnished through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always serving the latest build and enabling batch installation alongside other applications.
