I'm so confused by the frontpage of this, it looks like an alternative to Make with _no reason_ why I should use it over make. Seriously, there's not one feature on the homepage that isn't more obviously done with Make... Probably should pull that credentials example outta the docs and onto the homepage. And... on the homepage, please, please tell me:
what problems does this tool solve?
... Why was it created? Because generating new apps is like an "almost never" problem for me. Not to say it's not "un-fun" sometimes, but in reality, it's like the smallest amount of time I'll spend in the entirety of a project.
If anything the fact it's not Make, or whatever is canonical for the language/runtime, seems like a disadvantage because it's one more abstraction I'll eventually have to use... unless there are some wicked sweet problems it solves.
Also, the fact the user configuration language is `go` also seems like a disadvantage. As much as I hate to say it, JavaScript would probably be a better choice if you need users to have access to a language for scripting tasks (I know nothing about go but a quick google gave me this: https://github.com/jingweno/godzilla https://github.com/jingweno/godzilla). Does it already support multiple languages? Examples of that would be awesome too.
One love. Hope my comments are constructive for y'all.
