Isomorphic JavaScript apps

" summary

Shows a working Java-based isomorphic app: Java EE MVC + a custom React view engine uses Nashorn to run JavaScript server-side, calling React.renderToString to produce full HTML that the browser rehydrates without re-rendering. Demonstrates a book-list demo that fetches via REST, updates live, and successfully syncs client and server state. Covers gotchas: need for Nashorn thread-local script engine for thread safety, polyfills for window/process/console, and that JSX is transpiled with Babel/Node (or via Nashorn when updated).
