### What? 1. Adds logic to automatically update the `importMap.js` file with the project name provided by the user. 2. Adds an updated version of the `README.md` file that we had when this template existed outside of the monorepo ([here](https://github.com/payloadcms/plugin-template/blob/main/README.md)) to provide clear instructions of required steps. ### Why? 1. The plugin template when installed via `npx create-payload-app` asks the user for a project name, however the exports from `importMap.js` do not get updated to the provided name. This throws errors when running the project and prevents it from building. 2. The `/dev` folder requires the `.env.example` to be copied and renamed to `.env` - the project will not run until this is done. The template lacks instructions that this is a required step. ### How? 1. Updates `packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/configure-plugin-project.ts` to read the `importMap.js` file and replace the placeholder plugin name with the name provided by the users. Adds a test to `packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/create-project.spec.ts` to verify that this file gets updated correctly. 2. Adds instructions on using this template to the `README.md` file, ensuring key steps (like adding the `.env` file) are clearly stated. Additional housekeeping updates: - Removed Jest and replaced it with Vitest for testing - Updated the base test approach to use Vitest instead of Jest - Removed `NextRESTClient` in favor of directly creating Request objects - Abstracted `getCustomEndpointHandler` function - Added ensureIndexes: true to the mongooseAdapter configuration - Removed the custom server from the dev folder - Updated the pnpm dev script to "dev": "next dev dev --turbo" - Removed `admin.autoLogin` Fixes #12198
