Scripts are awesome isn’t it? Remember how we generate applications few years before, with scripts.
Bootstrapping an application is a mundane task. With changing technologies everyday, spending a lot of time for these mundane task is not worth it.

At the core, JHipster generates an application and it has all the bells and whistles.
