After an introduction presenting the upcoming Spring Framework 4.2 Script Templating support, this talk will show, with code samples, how to develop an application performing the same templates rendering on client AND server based on Spring Boot, Nashorn and Javascript based template engines like React (the latest game changer Javascript library released by Facebook).
The rendering of Javascript templates is performed initially on server-side thanks to a Spring MVC + Nashorn integration, then enriched on client side with a push mechanism (Websocket or Server-Sent Events).
This kind of isomorphic templating + the disruptive innovation brought by React with his virtual DOM mechanism make it possible to build a new kind of applications : responsive, with a great UX while being accessible.
