Hi there, I'm currently playing with Lift, and one of the things that surprised me was how much Javascript code is in Scala for snippets and bind. I'm not saying this is bad, because I haven't done an app this way yet, but I'm more used to writing the JS myself using jQuery or some other library. I'm wondering if anyone has had more experience working with Lift and maintaining an app in it, to say when in their opinion is a good time to put things in JS or in Scala snippets, and the advantages and disadvantages of putting most of the JS in snippets. (would you mostly use it for Ajax callbacks and comet-related stuff, or would you do a lot more stuff like hide/unhiding elements, etc. in scala?)
The one thing I can think of is Scala's type safety, but when for example, I accidentally change an HTML node's id and there is a JSCmd to trigger behaviour on that, there won't be JS errors, but the "right"/expected behaviour won't happen either.
