The vast majority of any interesting project is boilerplate. There's a small kernel of interesting 'business logic'/novel algorithm/whatever buried in a sea of CRUD: user account creation, subscription management, password resets, sending emails, whatever.

Most places I worked the setting up of that kind of boilerplate was done a long time ago. Yes it needs maintaining and extending. But rarely building from the ground up.
