"Congratulations! You've now started your brand new project with technical debt."
Love it.
The tl;dr here is that almost all of the decisions that an app template makes are decisions the team should be discussing. Otherwise, the homogeny of an app template creates a "you're doing it wrong" cargo-culting attitude.
Great post. Glad I read this.
- fdschoeneman 14y agoI think this might work both ways though. I think that generating an app from a template allows the team to get up to speed quicker on particular gems, and thus might enable a better decision about whether or not to use those gems -- whether they use that gem in a generated app or build it from rails new.
