Why another generator when you have JHipster?

JHipster is an amazing SpringBoot application generator with lots and lots of cool features. However, there are certain JHipster features that does not fit for my preferences such as:

  1. I like jar packaging
  2. I like to use spring-boot-starter-* than configuring individual libraries
  3. I like to have an option to generate application without spring-security
  4. I prefer Flyway over Liquibase
  5. I like to have only minimum and required configuration ie no AsyncConfiguration, LocaleConfiguration, CacheConfiguration, Logstash Logging etc.
  6. I like .properties over .yml

Local Development Setup
