The comparisoni

I am planting a greenfield in the park.

✓ Correct

This is a greenfield project, so we can use whatever stack we want.

GREENFIELD = no legacy code; total freedom.

Borrowed from urban planning and construction.

Remember it like this

Green = Fresh grass. Brown = Pre-existing dirt.
