|  | Summary
In this tutorial, you created a Comet-style Web application for auctions,
using Lift to make this task very easy. You started from scratch and saw how
to begin with Lift using Maven. You also looked at creating domain models
using Lift's Mapper APIs and had a chance to look at one of the more
powerful features of Scala, its Actors library. You used Actors to send
and receive messages about your auction system, and you used Lift's CometActors to turn an Actor into a Comet endpoint,
receiving Ajax calls and sending back JavaScript to the client. Finally,
you saw
how to use jQuery with Lift, and how Lift's Ajax and Comet stack uses
jQuery as well.
