In my early days I would have liked someone to have emphasized:
- onActivate and onPassivate so I would have stuffed less into my sessions.
- How components can interact with their containers and @Environmental
services. I initially ended up building components that needed to know
too much about their containers.
- the power of Block's and how they are great for passing as parameters
and page/component buildups. How they can elminiate the need for
template t:if tags when used with delegate's
- And how easy it is to build a @Inject'able tapestry service to wrap
your legacy code. A new user might be a bit put off when confronted with
tapestry-hibernate, tapestry-security if they already have all this in
place in spring or something else.
Good luck,
Joost

I'm planning on rewriting my Tapestry training materials for Tapestry
5.3, once it is stable. As
It will still be a four day course, but I want to change the approach
and emphasis. As always, I try to balance the needs of Tapestry (and
even Java Web Developer) new comers with the desire to keep it useful
and interesting for Tapestry journeymen and masters.
Think back to when you were first learning Tapestry 5 ... what kinds
of things would have made the biggest difference in your first few
days using Tapestry?
... and, BTW, my current course still really rocks and my next public
teach is coming up in London, starting July on 26:
