Ignore the message, go into Project Structure, select the modules on the left, your module, and on the right-hand side of the screen you should see a tree. The following should be listed as source: /app, /conf, target/scala-2.10/src-managed The following should be excluded: (everything in target except src-managed), maybe /.idea and .idea_modules Note that src-managed will not be there unless you compiled the application before running 'gen-idea' with sbt or idea with play. Personally, I prefer to use (from the command line): % sbt "gen-idea no-sbt-build-module" over play idea because gen-idea gives me sources as well in IDEA Note that if you run the server while in interactive-mode from the

UPDATE 7/20/17 I wanted to edit that there is also a Library called "ReactFX" which is supposed to be JavaFX as a reactive framework. There are many Reactive Java libraries from what I've seen, and since Play is based on the Reactive principal, I would assume that these Reactive libraries follow that same principal of non-blocking i/o, async calls from server to client and back while having communication be send by either end. These libraries seem to be made for the client side of things, but there might be a Server reactive library as well, but I would assume that it would be wiser to use Play! with one of these client side reactive libraries. You can take a look at [LINK] which implements
