        • 1. Re: [forge-dev] New Scaffolds

          Sorry to bring that again, but, as a user, I don't see any difference

          between code generation and scaffolding... so I don't understand why there

          are several projects. If I want to create a n-tier architecture app with a

          JSF and REST interface I would :

           

          jpa-generate-entities-from-db

          rest-generate-entdpoints-from-entity

          jsf-generate-pages-from-entity

           

          If I want to add a transactional EJB tier I would :

           

          jpa-generate-entities-from-db

          ejb-generate-services-from-entity

          rest-generate-entdpoints-from-service

          jsf-generate-pages-from-service

           

          And if I want to see what an Angular front end looks like compare to JSF, I

          would :

           

          angular-generate-pages-from-service

           

          Or if I quickly want to generate an Angular app from entities, I would :

           

          angular-generate-pages-from-entity

           

          I remember talking to Vineet and he had this idea of "you generate code"

          and you "scaffold an entire project". If that could be the case, then we

          would :

           

          scaffold-ntier-architecture-from-db

           

          or

           

          scaffold-thin-client-from-db

          ....

           

          My 2 cents

            To address your concerns, Antonio. Perhaps you are right, and we should

            forget about the UI commands provided with scaffold. Scaffold could merely

            become the set of APIs that make it easier to develop and "generate" web

            framework code for users.
