Thank you!

Thank you for using it, feel free to contribute in any way you can/want, just keep in mind that this should stay as a very mimimalistic boilerplate. If you'd like to add complexity just fork it and let me know when you're done, so that I might reference it here in case someone comes looking for a more opinionated environment.

Enjoy!
