A little project aimed at getting one up and running quickly with building a contemporary web app using Play 2 framework.

Contains a bunch of current web dev best practices and niceties, from latest Twitter Bootstrap (LESS) & Backbone.js to CoffeeScript with CommonJS modules support & proper JS bundling.

Here’re a couple of exemplary code snippets to whet one’s appetite:

{log} = require './utilities'

$(document).ready ->
  window.app = {}
  log 'Hello, world!'
  return

object Application extends Controller {

  def index = Action {
    Ok(views.html.index(Messages("app.name")))
  }

}
