Hmm what if we had had no dependencies except for maven and just made simple archetypes for each version? Hmm would life be easier? No updating deps no updating versions. just release a new one on each version and maybe a bug fix once in a while. No server needed. Just a bit of _javascript_ on a markdown page and some archetypes 🤔. Sounds like a novel idea to me. 🥰
It is not too late 😂! come back from the dark side and lets go towards the light together and KISS. Ivo. On 29 Sep 2024, at 19:01, Reza Rahman via starter-dev <starter-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

OK. In that case I can aim to do a bit more like updating the
Maven dependencies and runtime versions.
Do LMK when you get to it and send me the war offline. I'll
update the cloud deployment ASAP.

Jeyvison,
Bazlur fixed the issue and I have tested it. Can we urgently
have a
release of the Archetype and UI please? This will minimize
disruption
for users.
Thanks,
