Possibility of Integration of Thymeleaf Template Engine in your webmvc setup.

I liked your approach for embedded jetty.
Here is one more such setup, you might want to look at..

The only demerit is that they are using pure Java based configuration without any XML, Yours is a pragmatic approach which makes the use of web.xml and appcontext xml.

Only missing thing in your setup is Thymeleaf.

Thymeleaf is a robust alternative to JSP. Good part is that it keeps HTML markup design and web page template coding almost independent and easy to maintain.

Like JSP it also has support for Spring Security tags and may more utilities.

Could you explore the integration of the same in your free time ?

Thanks for sharing your knowledge on the blog. It's very useful :)
