Chris Riccomini commented on SAMZA-328:
---------------------------------------

I see three options:

# Provide a scaffolding script (a la ruby on rails) to build projects from 
scratch.
# Provide a tutorial on building a project from scratch.
# Provide a walk through for hello-samza

I am not too crazy about (1) and (2) because they're build-system dependent. 
(3) sounds like a good idea to me. We can go through and explain the assembly 
stuff in hello-samza, the runtime vs. compile time dependencies, what packages 
you need, samza-shell, etc. That's be my vote.

> Add a tutorial for building a Samza application from scratch

> We give very detailed instruction for users to play with Hello Samza. After 
> that, users are recommended to read Background and API overview. That makes 
> (and implies) users have no choice but edit the Hello Samza if they want to 
> have their first Samza application.
> Do you think it is worth providing a tutorial for building a new Samza 
> application form scratch? Or maybe, going through the Hello Samza project to 
> explain some components in it? Such as what kind of stuff/dependencies they 
> need to include when they create their own application.
