#Figuring out how to organise my workflow

So some backstory will be needed

When I first started programming I used just requiring modules. It felt annoying and tedious to do because I would keep needing to require the same thing in different scripts. Then I found out my favourite game, Jujutsu Shenanigans uses the Knit Framework. So I started using that for a while. Then recently, I found out people don't reccomend using Knit because it's no longer updated and doesn't have intellisense, so I start looking for new methods

I read about Module Loaders. Which is where I start getting mixed messages. Some people say you shouldn't use them and just require modules, some say they're fine ( but I struggle to find a good module loader). Then some people talk about Rojo and people say its amazing with plugins but then others say its not as useful as people say and it doesn't have autosave and such and such so I'm just not sure on where to start.

I want opinions on what peoples workflows are and what they reccomend. I know its mainly preference and stuff, so just give me an honest opinion based on what you think

you use module loaders when you need it. if it isnt needed then js use require like always? I feel like youre focusing too much on trying to be a script expert than actually scripting something u need

if you don't know why you need it or how to use it, you probably dont need it fingerguns

I don't have a problem with requiring modules, I still require all my modules manually even with my custom module loader.

Module loaders are not supposed to be an alternative to requiring modules, but to make scripts more organized with a SSA (Single-script architecture.) Here's an example of a game using SSA: https://create.roblox.com/docs/resources/plant-reference-project

I use this plugin to write variables and require modules faster https://create.roblox.com/store/asset/126975255537634/Require-Autocomplete?assetType=Plugin&externalSource=www
