    It seems like a small thing you said on the side, but it is really important that you actually understand and can explain the code it gives you that you’re copying into your project. Otherwise you’re taking in an unknown, unmaintained and unexplained dependency, and that can lead to problems once that dependency fails.

      Agreed that I should have been clearer…
      Both my statements of it not being a “one-click solution” and the aside about understanding the code was meant to emphasize that very point.
