Scala, Lift Setup


I want to get into Scala and the lift framework, but since there is alot of confusion for me as a PHP programmer. So I got some questions to help me get started.

I want to setup a webserver that runs the lift framework with a Mongo DB backend where do I begin? What is Apache Tomcat? What is Jitty? Is Comet an technology (protocol, design pattern?) or is it an project like Lift?

How can I setup Lift in Mac Os x as development enviroment, I understand I need Eclipse so I have downloaded it but what then? I don't understand how to install Scala.


Solution

  • The Lift wiki has a lot of information to get you started, and I would encourage you to join the mailing list. Where you will find many answers to questions already asked and you can of course ask more :)

    Best luck using lift!
