- 129. Collaborative Development github makes it easy! github.com/robotlegs
- 130. Collaborative Development comments, criticism, and ideas welcome
- 131. Collaborative Development fork the framework
- 132. Collaborative Development create examples and utilities
- 133. Collaborative Development create an alternative implementation
- 134. www.robotlegs.org download the framework best practices documentation project on github FAQ and Knowledge Base live examples

Editor's Notes
- boiler plate code is teh sux.
- Frameworks are mission critical. They should be stable and well tested. Period.
- This was the first example I ever created with Robotlegs. Originally it was a Parsley example, but in the middle of the series I found Robotlegs and didn’t look back.
