Bootbuckle

A vanilla Padrino project for starting new projects. Uses Compass, Susy, HAML, Sprockets, Heroku, MongoDB, Mongoid, Memcached.

Whenever I start a new web hack I often find that for the first half hour whilst I'm reusing components from previous hacks there's a lot of stuff I have to do every time just to get going. So I've created a "starting point" app called Bootbuckle that contains a lot of the stuff I use on most of my hacks (and indeed on larger projects). Clone it to start a new project, follow the Readme instructions and you (and I) will be up and running with all the usual stuff already done so focus can go on the bits that actually matter.
