That's very much a specific context where Ruby on Rails, web development tooling, and commercial services all intermingle. There's amble room to broaden that context to provide the same benefits to many other web developer communities, similarly dominated by a Mac bias. But that expansion will be carefully managed to stay with The Omakase Spirit. Rather install a few more tools than litter the project with endless configuration points. In the end, every tool preconfigured can be postconfigured in a different direction. + +## Future ideas + +Omakub is being born as a single, curated setup for one specific company in one particular domain. Going forward, we could well expand that to just be a shared base, where further specialization by other curators is possible. + +But anyone using Omakub should still just have to run 1 command and the result should be 1 specific setup.
