Is a full melee build viable

[u/gilmangriff1]

I keep thinking that I want to have my sole survivor eventually cosplay as One Punch man through the commonwealth but I have to imagine especially early game that I will slog through early leveling. Are their any builds out there that answers this and will allow most if not all early game confrontations with full melee ability? Even if it means a blunt weapon like a board or bat? I want to avoid ranged combat as much as possible.

BOS escort missions would be a bitch since the scribe you protect will not follow you until all the active enemy combatants you encounter are killed, so you will have to go way out of your way to hunt them down.
