In programming, the term boilerplate code refers to blocks of code used over and over again
Letโs assume your development stack consists of several libraries, such as React, Babel, Express, Jest, Webpack, etc. When you start a new project, you initialize all these libraries and configure them to work with each other.
With every new project that you start, you will be repeating yourself. You could also introduce inconsistencies in how these libraries are set up in each project. This can cause confusion when you switch between projects.
This is where boilerplates come in. A boilerplate is a template that you can clone and reuse for every project.
