    Do you setup everything from the scratch or use boilerplates?

    I don't know what you want to achieve. If you want to process certain materials or complete an existing effect, using boilerplates is fast and effective. If you want to achieve a certain effect that you want, then start from scratch and set it up

    I've hand-rolled my own boilerplate overtime as my preferred working stack has evolved. My hot take on the boilerplate-as-a-paid-product trend... I'd bet that a high percentage of customers (90+%) never recoup what they paid for the code with revenue generated from the project they built with it.

    @duffdevone True! But having a boilerplate in place (bought or built by yourself) will raise your chances by saving time.

    Depends on your use case. If you just need to spin up something fast, boilerplates can save a ton of time vs starting from scratch. But if you need something more custom, boilerplates can end up getting in the way more than helping. I usually start with a minimal boilerplate and strip out anything unnecessary. The key is finding the right balance for your specific project needs.
