(in the meantime maybe keep in Grails). For this of course we need many user tests to ensure behavior will be good the same.\r\n- others steps to adjust things ...\r\n\r\nIn my tests I'm using the new Grails web site as a reference; all code is done without other frameworks/libraries, to keep it simple; stay on a basic adaptive design; make it simple to expand or to remove with another (like Bootstrap).\r\n\r\nWhat do you think ?\r\n\r\nI hope to get some feedback, consensus is all here :-) .\r\n\r\nThe discussion thread is here:\r\nhttps://groups.google.com/d/msgid/grails-dev-discuss/deab1f8c-27e6-4803-9fd2-4abb44a287e4%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer\r\nplease put discussion-related things in that thread, and only development-related things/issues/updates (here) in the GitHUB Grails Issue.\r\n\r\nThanks a lot,\r\nSandro\r\n"}}
