This really sounds great. I can't wait to check it out.
I've been hoping for a Java-based framework that can compete with the Rails and Djangos for a while. I made the mistake of investing my time in Grails, and really regret it.
I've been wanting to use Scala for building web apps, but Lift reminds me of J2EE all over again. Hopefully Play! with Scala can get it right.
- dabeeeenster 16y agoWhat do you regret about Grails?
- therockhead 16y agoWhat issues did you have with Grails?
- mindcrime 16y agoWhat did you not like about Grails? FWIW, I've been using Grails extensively for the past year or so, and have absolutely loved the experience.
- mgkimsal 16y agoI'll ask as well - what do you regret about time invested in Grails?
- msluyter 16y agoNot sure if this was your issue, but we started using a little Groovy in some of our webapps, and started getting Tomcat crashes due to running out of java permgen space. I believe this is a side effect of Groovy's meta-classes. I think all we had to do was up the permgen space, but it soured certain members of our team to Groovy.
