Sitecore 8.2 + Helix + Common Extensions and Patterns
Prerequisites: -Sitecore Instance Manager (SIM) Sitecore v8.2 https://marketplace.sitecore.net/en/Modules/Sitecore_Instance_Manager.aspx
-Npm Installation on root source folder https://nodejs.org/en/
-Team Development for Sitecore (TDS) https://www.teamdevelopmentforsitecore.com/
-Integrated Dynamic Placeholders (can be found in the Sitecore MarketPlace) https://marketplace.sitecore.net/en/Modules/Integrated_Dynamic_Placeholders.aspx
FYI: Since I'm not using Unicorn for deployment of serialzed Sitecore Items any TDS project will be configured in Configuration Manager to not Build or Deploy (see blog for details)
Design: All components and renderings are based on the free bootstrap template Modern Business https://startbootstrap.com/template-overviews/modern-business/ This template provided some great components to begin for the general sandbox purpose of my point of views
Reference Sources: Professional Sitecore 8 Development by Phillip Wicklund (Apress, 2016) - Outstanding book that documented well some practices that alot of my current and former colleagues have used in successful deliveries https://github.com/Apress/pro-sitecore-8-development
I encourage anyone to fork it, own it, and continue to enhance it...I'll be doing the same.
