Dependencies

The benefit of eggs-genny is that you get to decide what you need and have it all get hooked up for you, free of charge.

Now, when I, @himynameisdave, first wrote eggs-genny it was based on my own dependency needs. I feel like they are well suited to most web application developers, and there are many more on the way. The goal is for eggs-genny to be a robust, one-stop shop for all web applications. That will be achieved by properly scaffolding out a unique application that uses a wide array of different frameworks.


##Dependencies

Currently, there are 4 main dependency branches:

####jQuery Despite the fact that it's 2015 and you really shouldn't be using it, jQuery it is still included as an option. Don't like it? Then don't check it.

####AngularJS Here's where you can see my dependency needs shining through. I really enjoy working with AngularJS, on large and small projects, despite what jackasses with accounts on Medium might say. As with jQuery, if you don't want it, don't use it.

####Bootstrap CSS I included Bootstrap, but only the CSS because I find their JS components goofy & bulky. Will the JS components be added, with some customization options? Probably not soon but hey if that's something you want added go ahead and make a PR.

####GSAP Greensock Animation Platform, which is a sweet JavaScript-based animation framework. Super robust, and free to use (aside from some paid plugins), it gets a lot done and has a super simple API.


###DAMMIT WHERE'S MY FAVORITE FRAMEWORK!?

Don't go and have a meltdown...

As I stated above, there are more on the way. If you want one, then contribute to the project or at least suggest your idea. Slowly but surely eggs-genny will be able to offer up many options for building any web app.
