# finally-got-to-play

Damn, trying out Play, wow such a cool framework and easy to use. Took me about 5 minutes to get up an running.

Started to work on the sample todolist app. Really enjoying not having to restart the server on every change almost seems like I'm working in php. Really liking the little things like TODO in action methods for actions which are literally to TODOs.

Also really digging the message for Action not found and TODO, might want to turn this off it is really helpful for development not sure if secure for production will try it ones I deploy to production.

Another thing I noticed is that everything seems to be static. Really intuitive and very little code to build an app, love it so far, its been a while since I have done any java development and all of a sudden looks attractive to me again.

Cannot believe how clean everything is. In the model I see why we made all the methods static, I think it allows us to decouple the dao from the underlying object that is doing all the work.

Strange when I ran the db stuff for the first time it detected that I had no db and so it just created one and ran it damn.

The production deployment heroku, looks really cool. Created an account and I just deployed it took a while to deploy but everything in the tutorial worked as documented. Still can't believe how easy and fun it was to play.
