Do you setup everything from the scratch or use boilerplates?

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.

@duffdevone yeah it depends upon the use case, and also personal preference.

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.

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
