If you're not running in direct connect, you'll need to set up Apache 
locally. After years of using it, I despise Apache however :) Mostly due 
to its weird config format.  I like to run in direct connect. I've added 
a vert.x woadaptor to Wonder8 to make direct connect a lot better. I 
still haven't worked out my strategy to fully replace 
apache/monitor/wotaskd in production, but it will probably be a docker 
container and standard kubernetes stuff.

If there are any bugs with jar resource loading, I think I've fixed them 
in the new NSBundle. I've recently gotten an all in one WOApp to run 
with jlink. That is: D2W, persistent session storage, h2 embedded 
database, vert.x webserver, java 25, all embedded in one app. I plan to 
turn that into a maven archetype when I get Wonder8 released onto maven 
central.

          <div>There is an annoying edge case with Maven frameworks and
            resource loading in Eclipse. I've never investigated it too
            deeply, as the workaround is simple: in your case, you need
            ERModernDefaultSkin.framework as an open project in your
            Eclipse workspace, and the Maven version needs to match
            exactly to what your app depends on. When there's a version
            mismatch, it doesn't seem to be able to load resources out
            of the JAR in your ~/.m2/repository.</div>
