Build a Quickstart

See http://wicket.apache.org/start/quickstart.htmlImage Removed for a good introduction to building a barebone Wicket project from one command. There is even a tool to let you customise the command for your project.

  • Add the Wicket Subversion repository - Navigate to Window > Show Perspective > Other... > SVN Repository Exploring (eclipse uses the term perspective to mean a collection of views, and a view is one single panel with some specific function like the navigator view or the editor view) In the SVN Repositories tab on the left, right click > New > Repository Location... and paste in the repository url: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/wicketImage Removed
