<snip> Its just frustrating to spend several hours on something and essentially get nowhere. Cocoon may be a powerful product, but it will never go mainstream in the web, imho, with its level of difficulty in understanding it. </snip>
Hi! I felt the same at the beggining (6 months ago), but something told me that I am in the right way to discover something great with a new world of opportunities. The true is that because Cocoon is a very new technology, there is a lack of documentation. But I am wondering about your impatience, because 6 month ago was almost nothing and now you have the option to buy 3 books and the wiki is running with very usefull info. First, to work with Cocoon you must start learning many new concepts like XML, XSL, XSP, etc. For some of us it was frustating, but if you stay here your time invests will refund you with the continuity of that. I can add that I jumped from Visual Basic directly to XML app. A big jump. But now I am very happy of how we changed the curse. Personally, Cocoon with XML is the next revolution on the Web. You cannot stay out of it. I already saw the GUI revolution and the Web revolution. Now we will live the Linux and the XML revolution. Please take note of that. OK. That was a too long guiri-guiri (means bla, bla bla in Nicaragua)... Please check: http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=Tutorials I recently added the famous 3 tutorials of Leigh Dodds at IBM developersworks that changed my life. ;-) I hope it will help you too.
