Hi you will still be able to run JSPWiki within all these application
servers, as it will still build a war file that is deployable anywhere.

What it makes easier is the development/testing (CI/CD) process, I think.
It also means more developers might be interested in participating as they
know Spring.

You are right though, a better front end UI for mobile would be valuable.
But I guess I'm more of a backend developer and curious whether anyone has
any thoughts on the roadmap for back end?

Cheers,
David V
