Yeah, tutorials that did templates last were my biggest frustration when I was learning a few years ago.
Very good question re: future-proofing. It's one of the reasons why I tried to build a lot of stuff online in the GitHub repo, like the installation instructions. While the template config and URL definitions have been updated, thankfully 1.8 is still backwards compatible for the old settings (AFAIK - I just checked and all HWA code still works.) Next print run of the book, I'll update the code to 1.8 and update the install instructions. Not much I can do other than decouple the stuff that changes frequently and release updates when I can. It's kind of a pain, and definitely something I worry about!
Great suggestion regarding Designers Who Code — will reach out ASAP, thank you!
