Hi Jeppe, I'm not using a front-end or any other kind of programming environment.
I always avoided Eclipse because it usually got into my way, but with the lift habit of using wildcard imports I lose a lot of time tracing all kinds of definitions, so in this case I'm reconsidering... As for a web-app front-end: making this website is a one-shot exercise for me, as I'm not a web developer at all... (Just a researcher/ software engineer/photographer wanting to have a nice website, in case you wonder.) I'm going to look into more detail wrt Jetty and URL mapping...
