The soy templates have a java (tofu) backend already (several years old).
The phantomjs idea is a shit idea and should go away. Phantom is fine and good for headless testing (hells we use it for quite a bit else) but seriously it is not a solution for a real load.
- sitkack 13y agoIn my scenario an alternative (Rhino or PhantomJs) engine would generate a page once and then push that rendered page to the server. No real load would be sent to it. Single code path for all template rendering. Zero cross implementation bugs and the client still gets a fully reified page on first load. Shit idea, lil harsh.
- peterhunt 13y agoShit idea is a little harsh for sure, but the problem is when your page relies on dynamic data and you can't prerender it. It's just too expensive to boot up a DOM on the server.
- lennel 13y agoWhy would you pre-render if your data is not changing continually? Don't you just have static content then?
