The amount of code required just to write a "hello, world" is ridiculous.

This thing that we programmers do is supposed to (I thought) reduce the complexity of writing code so we can focus on the problem. This takes it to a whole new level of "where the hell is the code that's actually doing what I want it to".

It may work great and be horribly useful. But having to dig thru 4 subdirs just to get to the code that actually does something ... that was a horrible experience.

This would be related to Java and Maven conventions, so you can easily handle tests, separate Java from Javascript - not a PurpleJS thing really.
