It requires Python 3. For resource and hook types, the tool requires at least one language plugin. Language plugins are not needed to create a module type. The language plugins are also available on PyPI and as such can be installed all at once:\n\n```bash\npip install cloudformation-cli cloudformation-cli-java-plugin cloudformation-cli-go-plugin cloudformation-cli-python-plugin cloudformation-cli-typescript-plugin\n```\n\n\n### Command: init\n\nTo create a project in the current directory, use the `init` command. A wizard will guide you through the creation.\n\n```bash\ncfn init\n```\n\n### Command: generate\n\nTo refresh auto-generated code, use the `generate` command. Usually, plugins try to integrate this command in the native build flow, so please consult a plugin\u0027s README to see if this is necessary.\nIn a module project, this will regenerate the module schema.\n\n```bash\ncfn generate\n```\n\n### Command: submit\n\nTo register a resource provider, module, or hook in your account, use the `submit` command.\n\n```bash\ncfn submit\ncfn submit --dry-run #prepares schema handler package without submitting for registration\ncfn submit --set-default # if successfully registered, set submitted version to be the new default version\n```\n\n### Command: package\n\nThis is to create a sc",
