Quick tip for integrators that have to create lots of new projects (hopefully all of us 😆 ).

I do this from a base project which I copy and rename. The problem is not all customers want all the features. Some features require database table to be created (eg: db user/roles). To ensure that I create the correct tables, I have created a Setup screen that only shows up in the designer. On this screen I have placed one button per feature. Behind that button, I have placed the code required to create the tables for the feature.

Customer wants feature A? Click the button - tables created.
