Play Framework

Learning to use the Play framework

I am trying to learn the Play framework today as a colleague recommended it.

I just installed play by typing brew install play on my Mac.

I just created a hello play project but I cannot import it directly in intellij.

I am being hit by the fact that the sbt plugin of IntelliJ does not support yet sbt 0.13. see http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/SCL-6070

So one has to use the "com.github.mpeltonen" % "sbt-idea" % "1.0.0" plugin and its gen-idea task to create the IntelliJ Idea module definition for a play application.
