Vert.x Gentics Mesh Example

This project demonstrates how to integrate Gentics Mesh, a headless CMS, with Vert.x to create a template-driven web server. It uses GraphQL queries to fetch content from Gentics Mesh and renders it using Handlebars templates, providing a practical example of server-side rendering with modern Java technologies.

Key Features

• Gentics Mesh Integration — Leverages the Gentics Mesh GraphQL API to dynamically fetch and manage content.
• Handlebars Templating — Uses Handlebars.java for server-side template rendering, enabling dynamic HTML generation.
• Vert.x Web Server — Implements a lightweight, non-blocking web server with Vert.x for handling HTTP requests and responses.
• Content-Driven Pages — Renders web pages based on content stored in Gentics Mesh, separating content management from presentation.

Philosophy

The example emphasizes a decoupled architecture where content management and web presentation are handled by specialized tools, promoting flexibility and scalability in web development.
