It was pretty pathetic and hopeless. Yes, I do instantiate the application, including the test version (with all the functionality behind the web mocked properly); but I cannot launch it! With Scala Play, there's no
Negative experience is good, we need to know that this shit is not good. But well, I can't switch to ZIO HTTP. I have to do what I have to do.
Investigated this and that shit; Karen suggested to compare with another service (last couple of years maintained by Davis, who has been sick for the last week); and I did find some suddenly required config files.
Does not help.
So I eventually bothered Davis. And he suggested to copy-paste as much as possible from the project that he did.
Ok. About 6pm it worked. Had to add another plugin. Did anybody document it? No way. It's a hearsay, your honor.
So, around 6pm I had the app launching, listening on port 5555; good. The tests don't pass yet, but it's not a fucking problem, because I'm in control now.
While at 11AM, at the meeting, I just told that I do have some progress, but no good news. Now I have good news.
Also, had a meeting regarding the two candidates we interviewed today. I'm the most enthusiastic about both. The Bengali one, and the North Carolina's psychologist. It's not my business to hire, but I liked both.

Also, James D., as I suggested to him (ok, I advertised our company a lot), filed an application. So I added some good words about him. It would be really a great pleasure to work with him. We have known each other for over 10 years.
