Steps to reproduce

Create a starter app (I selected the following plugins: vue-router, vuex, node-sass, babel, eslint, unit-jest, e2e-nightwatch)

What is expected?

I expect that the UI will create the project folders (src, public …) and also install the project dependencies.

What is actually happening?

Only the node_modules folder is visible, and no project dependencies are installed.

---

Create the starter app two times: 1) with vue create in a terminal 2) with vue ui. When you compare the projects, the app installed with the UI is incomplete. Running npm run serve results in an (obvious) error: missing serve script.

@hito read the words here. Clearly this bug has been fixed so it is likely you are running an older version of vue-cli.

Hmm, just updated to v3.11.0 after reading this issue report. Tried creating another project and still have the same issue. The created package.json looks like this:

{ "name": "myproject", "version": "0.1.0", "private": true, "devDependencies": { "@vue/cli-plugin-babel": "^3.11.0", "@vue/cli-plugin-e2e-cypress": "^3.11.0", "@vue/cli-plugin-eslint": "^3.11.0", "@vue/cli-plugin-pwa": "^3.11.0", "@vue/cli-plugin-unit-mocha": "^3.11.0", "@vue/cli-service": "^3.11.0" } }

Trying to run npm run serve results in npm ERR! missing script: serve

There are only three files in the project folder: package.json, package-lock.json and README.md
