To keep up with being a hipster, doesn't this need to be updated to use React or Angular 2? :P

It needs to be written in clojure/clojurescript to be a true JVM hipster

I think the idea is to let Java and Spring developers be hipsters, too.

Hipsters are all about retro, though!

(Confession: I like Angular.)

I have to say I really don't like scaffolding tools other than maybe just an example generator.

Typically thats what I use them for is just to generate an "example" project. Somewhat useful if your brand new to a technology otherwise completely useless if you know what you are doing... maybe I'm missing something new though?

Also I often would just rather look at an example project in github so I can take what pieces I need instead of having to run a damn scaffolding tool.

Last time I played with JHipster I thought it was really neat, but it couldn't readily be deployed to a free Heroku instance. The memory requirements were just too high even for a Hello, world app.

Yes we have had a lot of work with Heroku to make this work correctly. BTW, our Heroku sub-generator is made by Joe Kutner, the Heroku Java evangelist, so that's directly made by the person who knows this best!

Great news! I'll try out the new version.

Hlo, wrld?

Congrats Julien! I know you all worked hard on this. Can't wait to give this a spin.

Any thoughts on how is Spring Boot compared to Play Framework?
