I'm referring to Yeoman-Generator for Teams in the https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoftteams/platform/concepts/build-and-test/tool-sdk-overview#tools section. It seems like this project is no longer under active development. Are there plans by Microsoft to support that project or should it be removed from the docs?
Thank you Christian

Hi @onmomo - Could you please let us know if you are having any trouble or getting any error while using Yeoman-Generator for Teams ?

@Prasad-MSFT Hi, yes sure. So, the main issue is that the project seems no longer maintained. Therefore, my pull request that would enable support for manifest schema version 1.16 and 1.17 is not processed. Workaround this by disabling the schema validation with --no-schema-validation will throw an exception in zipTask.

'zipTask' errored after 3 ms

Therefore, we are currently looking into alternatives to this project, which is actually pity since it works quite well otherwise. If MSFT has resources to cover this project it would be great otherwise it should be removed from the docs.
