It's only a prompt: "Would you like to install the recommended addons?" You hit 'yes' and move on, never thinking about it again until you switch projects for the first time. I don't get what this fuss is about.

Note that the community is very active for each project. All popular projects like Tailwind and Astro come with their recommended add-on and command-line tools early after their release. But my favorite is when a new project pops up that replaces the original tool and becomes the standard because it got it right, and it didn't have to ask anyone for permission to do it.
