TheServerSide has just published the TechTalk about RIFE that I did at this year's Java symposium.
The talk discusses these topics:
- the history and rationale behind RIFE
- which design principles were applied
- how the framework benefits application developers and how you benefit from it as a team
- what continuations are and how they work within the servlet model
- how RIFE's component model compares with others
- what the benefit is of RIFE/Crud
- how the templating engine works and why the syntax is different from others
- when RIFE is a good choice for your application development and which suitations it's less suited for
- what features are covered by the full-stack and which ones are totally unique
