With the plethora of frameworks, boilerplates and libraries being released daily I think we should take a step back. Write our own code but borrow and adapt from others. We all code slightly or vastly differently from each other. Creating your own starting point means you know what each line of code is, does and how it works. Making you a better developer, making your products more delicious.
