Yes! Indeed I'm struggling! :) TG seems very cool but I haven't got
the right way of using it I guess but that's okay every tool has a
learning curve. Thanks to this list with TG it's not that bad actually
:)

Yes, this is clear.

Clear too.

Oh yes, I forgot about your example mainly because when I looked at it
last time it was too complicated. Now it's much clearer, thanks.

The kind of setup I'm thinking of is for example this: if I have a
book shop app I would like to display at the top of each page the
total number of books and the total number of authors. This should
appear on every page so I was forced to fetch these two numbers from
the db and put the corresponding function call at the beginning of
each method.

Yes, that is exactly what I'm doing!
