#tapestry5 implementing on-the-fly #coffeescript compilation using WRO4J and Rhino only took a couple of hours

#tapestry5 started work on wro4j integration: that means Less, CoffeeScript, Google Closure, etc. … at runtime!

Karma treats CoffeeScript as 2nd class citizen; compile errors don't report line number, skips tests w/o signaling failure

If you want to create a JavaScript API that plays well with #coffeescript, keep yourself to a single function parameter and make it last

#coffeescript w/ #D3 is very nice, but not perfect … but much better than straight JS. Destructuring can be very useful.

Just discovered that jsFiddle supports CoffeeScript!

Winding down another visit with Aviso in Killorglin, Ireland. Full week of 100% #clojure, #angularjs and #CoffeeScript

 http://www.egghead.io/  is great screencasts about coding #angularjs

Interesting blog post comparing framework performance  http://www.techempower.com/blog/2013/03/28/framework-benchmarks/ … Tapestry is in there, but their code could be more efficient

Starting to bootstrap demo app w/ @angularjs in the client, #clojure on the server; next up: #ClojureScript or #CoffeeScript ?

New #tapestry5 libraries, modules, and demos are coming faster and faster lately

“@qikipedia: Be like a postage stamp. Stick to one thing until you get there - JOSH BILLINGS” Sounds like me and #tapestry5

New blog post: Crafting Code in #Clojure  http://tapestryjava.blogspot.com/2013/02/crafting-code-in-clojure.html … attempts to answer "Why do I love Clojure so much?"

Kawwa: a huge bundle of HTML components from AtosWorldline; many of these are wrapped as #tapestry5 components.  https://kawwa.atosworldline.com/ 

Looks like they've upgraded the documentation for #jquery  http://api.jquery.com/jQuery/ 

Gradle vs. Maven: So in Gradle a little configuration replaces Maven's clumsy plugins & tons of boilerplate

Learning a lot by scanning the Gradle source
