Choosing a Scaffolding Tool

Scaffolding Projects

Boilerplate code is everywhere. No project is complete without adhering to a ~best-practices~ structure or design. That being said, cross compatible, language agnostic scaffolding tools are few and far apart. There is of course, Yeoman for the web, along with a host of similar tools for specific languages, like Go.

All in, however, tools which work across multiple operating systems are few and far apart. Previously for my own zenYoda and docuYoda projects, I dabbled in using gulp. I still think gulp, cmake and friends are not bad choices for many use cases, however, the initial setup still relied on a barbaric git clone and manual editing.
