What you raise is a valid concern, but is it better for a new developer to work off a best practice style example app or try to reinvent the wheel on their own?

- ryan_f 14y agoI agree. I know a lot of developers that will benefit having a good example to work from.
- mrchess 14y agoNo doubt I agree as well. Best way to learn is by imitation. But yeah, it is just a concern, that's all.
- rhizome 14y agoA new developer by definition doesn't know what best practices are, so they can't judge whether the example app they're working off of is safe or not. By way of a too-abstract analogy, learning multiplication tables is not reinventing the wheel.
