Where is the Vendor module in YII Initializr?

I have installed YII Initializr module and YII framework is in my PHP Include path. But as soon as I run mysite/frontend/www/index.php, I get this error:

Warning: require(./../../common/lib/vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\xampp\htdocs\yiiinit\frontend\www\index.php on line 12    
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required './../../common/lib/vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.;D:\xampp\php\PEAR') in D:\xampp\htdocs\yiiinit\frontend\www\index.php on line 12

Please help.
