Scaffolding Tooling

[jonspark]

Just to carry over a fork of the conversation in #10, there's a proposal for a Clicksco-built Yeoman generator to set up an initial project.

If possible, it should help everyone to easily get off the ground.

Getting back to Yeoman, I want to look into creating generators for different types of projects e.g. Bespoke Application, Laravel, SPA.

With this said, I am going to look into abstrating certain parts of the boilerplate away e.g. The SCSS will become a Bower dependency.

Any thoughts?

+1 for Yeoman.

I did start briefly looking into a generator but didn't get too far. From what I've seen it's pretty awesome and flexible. Using it to start any type of project will simplify things and also speed things up too.

This has been reopened so we can discuss if this is necessary for the boilerplate.

Changed title as not to bias towards a specific tool

[BenjaminRCooper]

Anyone have any specific tools they would like reviewing on this front?

I currently am reviewing both Yeoman (http://yeoman.io/) and Slush (http://slushjs.github.io/)
