Hi Stefan and everybody,
I am a bit overwhelmed by the enormous response on my mail and am very
grateful for it.
Last evening, after seeing the amounts of mail, I started working
again and ended quite late. I think I even made some progress!
(at least Maven thought I made some)
So the
Not ment as a offence but you are in way over your head!
A couple of things:
1. You say you are a non-programmer but I assume you do understand Scala? Or
else it is pointless to use Lift as it is based on the Scala language and
relies heavily on its features. Knowledge of Java is also a plus cause

While I agree. Linus Torvalds was in much the same place. He has

This is a case of running before walking I think.
Ko, web app development encompasses *many* aspects, and jumping in
with a Functional/OO hybrid language based framework
We try to make Lift accessible to a wide range of folks who want to build
web sites. However, there are lower-bounds on what we can do. By and
large, PHP is a great place to start in terms of mapping simple HTTP
requests into simple web pages with a little RDBMS storage.
Personally, I don't
Stefan,
thanks for your reply. :)
to anwser your questions: I have no experience with Java and I only
made some very simple static websites, years ago. I will try to listen
to you and try to make a very simple website with Lift. But if -IF-
I've succeeded in doing that, I hope you will excuse

David,
no need to appologise! I think you do all necessary to clarify issues
at hand and defend the interests of the lift community!
And I am very happy with the liftbook too! But yes I've spent two
weekends to try to accomplish some simple task and failed.
And because of that, indeed it has
Ko,
Id echo DPP's comments... if you are a real beginer then perhaps
consider PHP as it will provide you with a quicker route to market.
Lift is a great bit of software engineering, but parts of it are
truley non-trival and will no doubt be completely inappropriate for a
beginner... hell, we
Ko,
You are in an interesting position :) ... Personally if I would be in
your place I would not start with PHP. I would probably start
understanding Java servlets and the horrible and crappy JSP's. Then I
would try to understand Java not only as a language but also as a
platform. Then I would
Hello koveen,
I'll tell you some of my experiences with Lift/Scala to give you some
idea. I learned to code basic and some what they called then Machine
Language on a Commodore Vic 20 and a 64 oh so long ago, I learned a
bit of C then gave it up. I learned a bit of PHP since then but that's
it.
For the large part, I agree, the level of questions even I know is
geingt a bit too much, and the amount of patience you all use
answering them even though you know you just answered that a week ago
is commendable. That said you commiters don't have time to waste
answering those questions, that's
I didn't want to discourage you I just wanted to be honest and please do
come back with any question you have as we learn by asking. But at the same
time as was said in this thread already take the time to expriment and use
the resources that are there (google and the like) to come up with the
Maybe there should be a Wiki page filled with links for more
information, like How To: Get more information. It would be nice if
it (and the article titled Home--maybe it should have a better
name?) could somehow be the first article in the list.

Being a non-programmer, and additionally not having a Java background,
which framework are you comparing Lift to when you say it's not easy?
:)
Can you clarify: Is this going to be a site, or a back end to a mobile
app that sits on the phone?
