Hi.

Looking to get feedback from list if you don't mind.

If one is looking to create/build a webapp, I'm thinking it makes sense to
look over open source apps (good ones, not the garbage ones!) that are
created using your stack.

Example, I've defined laravel/mysql/etc..
 My potential app will have some of the funcs:
   User/Profile Management
   Email Send/Manage/Process func
   Admin Portal/Process -- diff functions
      userAdmin
      systemAdmin
      etc..

THe idea being, if I've defined my tch (laravel), and I roughly know my
pieces of the webapp, doesn't it make sense to find/copy/'use some pieces
of other apps as guides to build the init mockup/model to be able to then
drive the overall process?

In other words, why recreate from scratch, that which is more or less
already created a bunch of times..(This would also include some of the
ux/ui look/feel frontside stuff.

thoughts?

ps, in the event you agree with the above, i might repost asking the list
if you have any apps that have certain functions/features that I'm looking
for!

thanks!!
