How to start

[Danilo Luiz Rheinheimer <da...@floripa.com.br>]

Hi,

  What I can use as a starting point to make my jetspeed portal ?
  The problem is the sample who comes with jetspeed has many features
so I am felling lost.
  What I need to keep to have a really minimal portal (just a simple
user autentication) and one "hello world" portlet ?
  So with this I can envolve the portal to fill my needs.
  TIA.

  But my problem is not on write portlets.
  It is on create a new minimal portal WebApplication.
  I want this app to be minimal so can be easy to me replace the
authentication method, customize how the portal looks, translate
to my native language (portuguese), make a JBuilder project to
debug and so on.
  The problem to me is the Jetspeed WAR has many features and this let
me confuse. For example they have a hsql database server inside it. I
do not need it because I will use another authentication method.
  As I do still do not know very well how portlets work and are
configurated it is difficult to me start to remove things without
break something or let something I do not need on the project.

Just take one of the portlets most close to what you want and start to 
modify that one.

Eg the Velocity portlet if you are a velocity programmer, the JSP portlet 
if you prefer JSPs. (There is one isn't there).

You can ignore all the other portlet types you don't need.
