Hi Derek, Thanks a lot for the reply. I did consider Guice for DI on the serverside but not sure if it would be redundant if using a framework like Spring. I do want to utilize RF though as it has a nice set of features which I'd like to include, e.g. caching and only delta posts. And I'll definitely take a look at GIN again since DI on my clientside might be pretty nice too. Thanks again,
