I'm currently working on frontend stuff for a JEE application.
Some aspects of my usual frontend workflow seemed difficult to achieve in the first place, so I took some time to find out how to get back to my zero-turnaround workflow, even with a foreign setup that seemed to be difficult for that matter.
There seems to be a lack of documentation or written down experience, so I thought, I could at least publish my personal experience / setup. Comments and complement are very welcome.
I noticed that some frontend developers have problems setting up the java environment, so there's a section for this as well.
