Hi,

I'm new with erlang and i just begin to write my first erlang application.
I'm just wondering which tools do you use to get the base template of your application without starting from scratch each time you develop a new application.

So i'm looking for tools that i could use to facilitate the building of erlang OTP applications :
a tool that will generate for me : a Makefile, the .app file, the directorie structure (ebin, src, ...), ...
So could tell me if you know such a tools and what you personally use for starting your erlang OTP applications ?

Thanks in advance for all your answers.
Noki

I would recomend to start with tools like Emakefile http://erlang.org/doc/man/make.html

After that, it is time to understand idea of erlang application http://erlang.org/doc/design_principles/applications.html#7 which is used to compose erlang release http://erlang.org/doc/design_principles/part_frame.html

When You will be familiar with low level mechanisms of erlang release handling, try tools which will do it for you. One of many is http://code.google.com/p/erlang-t-build/

Also in tutorial http://www.trapexit.org/Category:HowTo You will find part about Building OTP Application.
