Hi there,

im recently trying to learn tapestry5 from the ground up using the tutorial provided at http://tapestry.apache.org/using-beaneditform-to-create-user-forms.html .

There i figgured (at least for me) some major Problems or Missing parts in the Tutorial i wanted to report in for some expert to re-check and update/complete the tutorial.


1.
basic projects starting using manualy installed maven and command line interface. cool thing! but whats next? should i start any tapestry project using the maven on command line and import the thing into eclipse now? what about "how to start a basic tapestry5 project from within eclipse?" ?? just a suggestion/feature request for the tutorial.

2.
major problem here:
A tutorial should be linear/continuisly. so that one point leads into the other, without breaks or missing stuff. I found a place where i miss at least several realy important things that BLOCKS me yet from continuing the tutorial.

That is http://tapestry.apache.org/using-beaneditform-to-create-user-forms.html , especialy the section about "adding validation".

If you play through the tutorial step by step like i did, you will get lost here!

Sime paragraph says: "Update the getter methods for the lastName,..." - but WHERE?? No mention anywhere. You know it? Good! I dont, and i got lost here. I "assumed" it may go into the address.java (struct style) class, but if you do it, it will FAIL, since there are other important things to know or to do which are NOT MENTIONED in the tutorial.

PLEASE fix that! Only experts can fix that. Those who need Tutorials dont know what n where to do here.


Some apreciation: till here the tutorial is quite good and i love it! pls keep up the good work, complete/fix the tutorial and maybe even add some additional chapters.

Hopefully my report/suggestion will find its way to the author/maker of the tutorial.

Thanks n c u

Axel Werner
