And if you have to figure out packaging into a .war anyway, then might make sense to use a similar setup for development as well. In any case, thanks for the advice. I bet the framework has changed quite a bit in your two years. I wonder if your experience has been a positive one and if there are any "I wish I had known this before we started" tidbits you could share. @Ivano - if popularity was a measure, we'd all be still using Struts instead of Tapestry, wouldn't we? Convention over configuration is one thing, but the article you linked to is a fairly well balanced in my opinion. For me, the biggest things to like in Ember is it's router, clean urls, cleaner/simpler concepts and performance.
