Sure, we'll happily brainwash newcomers into the Grok way first. :)

By the way, I'd call Grok a 'framework', not an 'app'. In the egg-based 
world, Grok will make sure that newcomers don't have to think about 
dependencies but have a set of eggs available to them to get started.

It is important for attracting new users of a framework to make it easy 
to get started. Requiring beginners to puzzle over which egg 
dependencies to include will push away most.
