I loved Wave and was sorry to see it go away. I did then run the open source Wave distribution from Apache but I couldn’t get friends and family to use it.
Also, I have always been a fairly clever programmer (starting to code around 1964) but I gave up trying to work with the Wave code base.
- glenstein 1y agoWhat was your experience with the Wave code base?
- josephg 1y agoYeah the wave codebase is a bit of a poster child for me of how the enterprise Java programming style can easily drown you. I think we opensourced ~350k lines of Java and it honestly doesn’t do anywhere near enough to justify its weight. I feel like you could rewrite the whole thing today in about 1/20th as many lines using modern tools & frameworks. Thanks for trying to keep it alive. That was a tough thing to do!
