@alidcastano is doing a fantastic job with Rogue. It provides much of the niceness I am after these days with zero config.

Next.js, Razzle, and After.js are also incredible alternatives.

Personally I would recommend that people use one of the alternatives above before considering using this project. It has fallen out of maintenance recently and in my opinion really only serves as an example on how you could approach your own bespoke configuration.

Thoughts?

Personally, I've always preferred frameworks over boilerplates / starter-kits. The beauty of a framework done right, is that it's code you don't have to think about, see, or maintain. This went a long way went I was getting started as a developer.

But for those that don't mind the above, then this repo can still definitely serve as a great example of how to get started. And mentioning alternatives shouldn't be a problem for current users since they're basically maintaining their own setup anyway, you're just giving them a nice starting point.

Thanks for mention, I'll continue discussion on https://github.com/alidcastano/rogue/issues/24

@ctrlplusb Maybe we all can help here? If we can merge the pending PRs and figure out a next set of changes that it might need, maybe other users of this repo can come together to make it happen?

@oyeanuj most definitely open to such an exercise. I just don't feel like I have the capacity to keep it moving forward. Definitely up for handing over a lot more ownership to others. Would also be great for a wider group of developers to be driving it forward, rather than myself making most of the decisions. Feel like having consensus amongst a group would give a better representation of what is actually needed by the community. 👍
