Why did you remove the "generator"? #162

I understand that using marlinspike you actually don't need to copy all the files to the root of the project. Marlinspike exposes all that code that is in the "/node_modules/sails-auth", and "magically" we can create users and authenticate them. My question is why? As a developer, I would actually prefer the code in the root of my project (copied by using the generator). At least I know where each controller is and I have everything in the same place (Controllers, Models, Policies...). But probably is for maintainability. I think is a bit insecure if marlinspike is exposing a controller and I don't know about it.

Thanks

I totally agree with that. Even if it is not a default behaviour. I would prefer having the choice to get the code inside my project if I want to.
