    Highly recommend the Groovy + Spring Boot combination for backend REST services. So quick to get stood up.

      The MVP was up fast, then deployed many features in later months - amazing to see the team build such a large app so quickly

        Things I learned and hope to blogpost soon: 1) Flyway DB migrations are amazing for DDL. Complicated for Multitenant data changes.

          2) Multi-tenancy client-per-schema REST backend with Spring Boot is so simple. Almost too easy.

            3) React + Redux + Webpack2 is really slick for JS Frontends - easy to get started, while learning deeper concepts along the way

              4) Karma + PhantomJS for unit tests is nice. but must deal with memory issues that are a pain github.com/karma-runner/karma-phantomjs-launcher/issues/55

                5) Glad we setup Embedded MariaDB4j so we didn't have to maintain local/test db instances- Wish startup was faster github.com/vorburger/MariaDB4j

                  6) @SpringData is terrific for simple queries, but complex dynamic queries are messy. Really needs a groovy DSL like GORM where clauses
