Tool Builder - Liberating Innovation via site building

This is one of the more ridiculous goals of the project.

As a developer learns the system the person is expected to first understand the fundamentals of the system, then learn its architecture, then learn how to configure it, then learn how to build on top of it and also build using contributed modules, and finally build and extend the capabilities of the core and contributed modules through custom module development.
