Have a fully created app as reference

[tnguyen14]

I think it would be useful to have a completely set up project from scratch using create-choo-app included in this repo as a reference. Sometimes, I want to see what a conventionally set up choo app would look like, and cherry pick some features that would make sense for me. I think this is most applicable to an existing project.

I like the idea of having a reference for those interested in seeing how create-choo-app structures things.

We could easily add an example under an example directory in this repo and call it out in the readme, my only concern would be ensuring it's kept up to date as things change.

Am I along the right lines with what you were suggesting @tnguyen14?

[tnguyen14]

Yes, that's exactly right.

I agree that it should be kept up to date as things change. Along that line, perhaps we can have a script to automatically update that directory with the latest example when changes are made?

[chrisdwheatley]

It might be worth referencing the example in the main Choo repo (https://github.com/choojs/choo/tree/master/example) and then ensuring that create-choo-app represents the same structure.

[tnguyen14]

Yeah, I agree with that. Need to consider one as the source of truth, and update the other. In this case, it might be easier to consider create-choo-app to be that source, and as part of the build process, somehow submit a PR against the main choo repo to update the example directory?

Might be easier to just link to the single source of truth rather than maintaining a copy.
