Description
Pretty much what's asked here https://github.com/ericmdantas/generator-ng-fullstack/issues/192.
> For big projects/teams, it's pretty annoying to answer the same questions over and over again, given they usually have the same answer.
> It'd be nice to be able to pass the yo-rc file around (from project to project) and have ng-fullstack recognize that and already "know the answers", not asking all the questions again.
> We'll have to check how yo'd let us do that, though.
The file could be named `.yo-rc.json`, or even `ngf.json`.
When the user finishes answering the questions, the `.yo-rc.json` would be created on the fly.

Research direction
Read the linked generator-ng-fullstack issue #192 first, then investigate how Yeoman exposes project configuration and how ngf currently asks its questions. Compare the proposed .yo-rc.json and ngf.json approaches; done means an existing configuration supplies the answers without prompting and a configuration file is created after the user answers.
