Thanks Geertjan!

I think the what we need most is a serious, complete User's Guide. One that is well written (people find the current one too hard to read) and that covers everything you need to know to really get started with Wicket for a serious web application.



I think it would be good if people were to specify EXACTLY what kind of things we'd like to have in terms of documentation. I mean, there are already several basic tutorials on the Wicket site. What kind of things are missing -- once we know that we can work out how to provide the necessary docs.

I've started assembling a component reference doc -- http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/geertjan/?anchor=wicket_markup_html_webcomponent_voor

Is this going in the right direction? What other/additional things would be needed for that doc? Or is it superfluous?


Yeah, I like it so far. Instead of the package images, it might be nice to have some simple illustrations (or none in the case it handles components that everybody knows) and it would be awsome to have short code samples with them. Like:

** Label.* Outputs a single string. See the "HelloWorld" sample.

Java:
add(new Label("message", "Hello World!"));

HTML:
<span wicket:id="message" id="message">Message goes here</span>

Cheers,

Eelco
