Yeah, that was Joubu’s conclusion as well. Better do it now, while it’s still 
manageable.
My suggestion is to build a shared component library with the generic stuff. I 
believe many of them are abstracted well enough to be used elsewhere.

Luckily, I have the chance to spend some time at Hackfest next week to dig into 
the setup further. Will keep you posted.

Best
