    Great idea but you should have spent a few hours searching for as many frameworks you could find and adding them. This will slowly slip off the first page and everyone will forget about it.

    If there were a few projects pre-populated, I'd probably have bookmarked and come back / submitted anything you might have missed.

    I am so mind blown right now... On 10/14 (5 days ago) i checked if this domain is available (it was) because I had exactly the same idea. I even made a note that is sticking on my desk right now. Good luck with your project...

    great idea to me, should have existed before, and a suggestion for future maturity. For a given code base, have a cumulative tree with all possible combinations of feature choices, look at "feature model" in wikipedia so you can map a FODA diagram to a VCS controlled tree, that is, think of a code base as a product line instead of a fixed product.

    I've been looking into ocaml, and was wondering what to do once my programs grow beyond a single file. Unfortunately it doesn't have the equivalent of 'lein new' (Clojure tool for creating a new, empty project skeleton), so I'd welcome a repository of best practice examples like skeleton.io.

    your thoughts on how this relates to or serves a different usecase than yeoman?

    Minor suggestion: on the newsletter page, hitting enter/return should submit the form. It didn't on my browser for some reason (Chrome 36.0.1985.143 on Linux). I had to click the button.

    Neat! I maintain something similar here: http://github.com/jordan-wright/boilerplate.
