I understand that it cannot be a replacement. And this creates a difficulty for beginners (like me...) as it is sometimes hard to see where to put/do what, as there might be different ways to do things. This can become problematic because not all ways are as robust/clean/ efficient/secure... as they should be. Therefore I believe it would be nice and welcome if a few examples/guidelines/explanations regarding this issue would be givenn somewhere... Thanks! > > Thanks! > >
