Starting with nothing and building everything from scratch is the opposite of what Mimosa is trying to do for you. The idea with Mimosa is you are coding straight away rather than hunting down plugins/modules, or finding generators ;), and then figuring out how to configure them. All those compilers are available, but if you don't need, for instance, TypeScript compiling, then the TypeScript stuff stays out of the way. No harm having those extra things. Mimosa lacks Bower integration, though. Bower integration is nice for managing those sorts of things. |

If I failed to do so already, please allow me to state that yeoman and its generators (including my generator) as well as Mimosa may very well be an "expression of opinion" of various developers. The opinion is regarding what makes a productive workflow. This will certainly change over time or, at least, on a project-by-project basis.
In a different comment I made on this submission, I mention that if you are a developer that has worked with Jade, CoffeeScript and LESS - and enjoyed doing so - then my generator may make the process of getting up and running with them a bit faster for your next project.
