Clarion as a framework that will generate code from a dictionary, a set of table structure definitions, will let you create many program solutions with a minimum amount of programming knowledge. This is a double-edged sword. You can build a set of business programs and therefore a business and get it running rather quickly with minimum of effort.
However, as time progresses and your application or set of applications gets bigger, you might be spending an increasing amount of time getting tasks done. This is the other side of the sword.
What you do not know will eventually have to be looked at. This normally takes someone with a bit more programming knowledge than you will have. Incorrect decisions that you have made will have to be corrected. You add hock changes will have to be tracked, and all programming will require having a map of where everything is located. Your business rules will have to be explained to someone that does not know your business.
The RYB templates were created to help with the building of the knowledge where everything is located, and getting your business programming to the next level. Most of the time, you start by making things consistent across all your applications. This allows to build up the business knowledge and pass that knowledge to all that will work on your business.
