Dude, going back to your roots... did I read that correctly? Why waste your time on a framework that is dying a slow death? Even the founder of Tapestry, Howard Lewis Ship, has abandoned it and never came back. There are fine modern frameworks out there in the wild. I guess you are coming back to Tapestry because you are scared of Javascript, as most of the modern frameworks are dependent on. If not, then try Angular, Vue or React. Your life would be way better. Instead of coming back to this antiquated framework. Just my piece of advice to you.
