New Express App with Handlebars Template Engine Follow
Hi,
I'd like to be able to select Handlebars as the view engine when I create a new Node.js Express App & be able to select Handlebars as the template engine. At present, I can only select from Jade, EJS or Hogan. Following that, ideally, the Handlbars files would be in an "hbs" directory under the node_modules directory.
Is there a way to do this? Handlebars seems to be a very approachable template engine, but I'm struggling with how to incorporate it into my Node.js Express app us WebStorm.
Thanks in advance!

express-generator module that is used for creating Express application stub supports 3 template engines only - jade, ejs and hogan
If you miss handlebats support, please feel free to file a ticket to express team (https://github.com/visionmedia/express/issues)
You can probably try other generators - like https://www.npmjs.org/package/generator-node-express, for example
