This learning series takes an in-depth look at a powerful tool: JHipster. Much like the Ruby on Rails (or Grails) approach, JHipster allows you to get your applications up and running quickly and efficiently. This collection of blog posts discusses the pros and cons of the monolithic approach, walks you through the process of settin up a microservices architecture using JHipster, and finally, gives tips and tricks to help you get up to speed.

Series

This post veers off the beaten path of monoliths and walks you through creating a microservice app with JHipster. Strap in, this gets intense.

Part Three

We share tips and tricks to help make your "getting-up-to-speed" process with JHipster faster. These "gotchas" are bound make development much easier.
