@vh Is that already fixed? I probably ran into this again here: https://github.com/jknack/handlebars.java/issues/652

new ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("nashorn");

returns null in local devserver, but works in tests and also in production.

I created a dedicated repo for that issue here: https://github.com/mpoehler/hbs-test

Can you give me a hint regarding the classloading issue in the devserver?

@loosebazooka Yes. I’ve found that it is problem with local dev classloader. Not gradle plugin issue. Thanks for help!
