So, you fill in all the fields, submit the form (without validation errors) and voila: you get back the same form, blanked out. What happened, and where did the data go?
...
But what entities? Normally, the available entities are listed inside hibernate.cfg.xml, but that's not necessary with Tapestry; in another example of convention over configuration, Tapestry locates all entity classes inside the entities package ("com.example.tutorialtutorial1.entities" in our case) and adds them to the configuration. Currently, that is just the Address entity.

As a little preview of what's next, let's display all the Addresses entered by the user on the Index page of the application. After you enter a few names, it will look something like:

We have lots more to talk about: more components, more customizations, built-in Ajax support, more common design and implementation patterns, and even writing your own components (which is easy!).
