Create repo "sutil-template-safe"

This should be a Sutil version of the SAFE template. It will need to be kept up to date with any changes.

Is this something that's free to be picked up? I'd be happy to take this on.

Sure! Thank you! Let me know if I can help - DM me on Twitter if you like.

Your DMs on Twitter seem to be disabled :P We can contact each other on email if you want, though.

My general plan for approaching this is to mirror the official SAFE Template as close as possible, so basically we will need two templates:

• minimal - just enough to get the app running, no template app, no FAKE and no Paket (this will be done first)
• default - ToDo app with FAKE and Paket included (This will be added ASAP)

Do we want to include Fable.Remoting integration for the default template as well?

Oh, and we could also add a template just for a Sutil project, no backend, what do you think?

Whatever works for you. Perhaps we need to be following each other to DM on Twitter.

What's the alternative, if this template needs to talk to the backend? If the SAFE default app uses remoting, I'd say we should too?

Yes, though see my other repositories "sutil-template-helloworld", "sutil-template-*".

The prolific @AngelMunoz also made a start on some of the template ideas.

I finally found some time to work on this. Here's the repo: Sutil-Template.
It includes Sutil-only template, and Sutil template with SAFE stack.
I didn't go with the classic ToDo app, since I wanted to keep the template code to minimum, so it's easy to remove/modify, while at the same time creating a good starting point, that covers all bases.
The SAFE template is very similar structurally to the official one, with the exception that we don't provide (and I think we shouldn't) a minimal version.

It's still WIP, some cleanup left to be done, but I think it's ready for people to look at it :)
I'd love to hear your opinions and feedback, don't hastitate to leave any comments.

Best regards.
