I've tried the newbie path both w/ and w/o Wonder. Based on my
experience, I definitely recommend using WOnder.
My experience is that WOnder didn't add much complexity to the
learning curve.
*On the contrary*, I think it makes things simpler (while making
some of the broken stuff Just Work (tm) too).
Truth is, it does requires more *work* since you need to learn
more, but it's worth it.
Thinking more about it, I realize that I didn't factor in all the
work that WOnder *saves* you (e.g. using the Ajax framework, ERXQ
and ERXKeys are just a few examples that come to mind), so I'd
actually venture to say that using WOnder is actually less work
overall.
I think it's worth it too. But there's one factor that can make it
harder for the newby: Documentation. i.e., the WO javadocs I always
found were quite useful for learning and digging down into things. For
those in the know - you know what you're looking for when coming to
Wonder to benefit from its stuff.
For those who don't know what they're looking for, it could be more
difficult. But the mailing list is really useful too, so you're
unlikely to be lost for too long.
