M2s zero mq awesomeness, for me, is balanced out by the need to recreate init scripts, config files, and other things that all my other apps use. I'm not opposed to zed replacing these, its just that I think this non web server related work belongs in separate projects. Having all these new things to learn and understand makes setting up m2 way more complicated than it needs to be.

The documentation that is there on the site is absolutely excellent - first there is a document that can get you a running server within a few minutes:

Then there's a complete manual which takes probably half an hour to read but is worth every character of it:

You don't have to replace anything, there are config files. Look in examples/configs/ and you'll see examples of configs.

I went through the getting started guide two months ago and at the time it pointed new users towards m2sh and had no mention of config files. Did something change in your docs?
