Description

good first contribution

Hi,

I am using this generator to kickstart most of my ExpressJS projects, and it's real good, but I always wonder why you use var and functions instead of let/const and arrow functions?
I always change it myself when I kickstart a project.

Is there any particular reason for that? If not, I can make change and and create a pull request.
