I'm new to Apache Isis, but familiar with the basic concept behind it. Here are some first impressions of things that could be made better:
1) The simpleapp archetype link on the isis.apache.org front page is broken. 2) In general, the documentation seems to have a fair number of broken links and missing images. 3) After using maven to generate and run the archetype, I had to clear my browser cookies to avoid a "too many redirects" error accessing the application. Clearing the cookies worked, but I don't know why I had to and was hesitant to do so. 4) SimpleObject contains a lot of boilerplate. It's not clear how much of that is required and how much is intended to show what can be customized. I suggest providing more sample classes, where one class shows how simple a domain class can be and others show points of customization. Ideally, I would like to be able to start with a domain class that is no more verbose than a @Canonical Groovy class and customize from there as needed. I'm still investigating Apache Isis and wanted point out some things that will discourage some new users. - Curt
