What you can do is to put your package in a install.publish folder. Then based on the runmode it will be installed.

This sample works for me (aem6.2 tested): <ul data-sly-list="${currentPage.listChildren}">    <sly data-sly-test="${itemList.first}">        <div>    </sly>    <li>${item.name}</li>    <sly data-sly-test="${itemList.last}">        </div>    </sly></ul>

I would start with putting the uberjar as the first dependency, then removing the others one by one.

Can you try data-sly-template for the elements to open or close an HTML element?What I think you are facing is that Sighty/HTL is expecting valid HTML.

You need to use the AEM6.2 uber-jar.Doc: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/develop/dev-tools/ht-projects-maven.htmlExample: https://github.com/heervisscher/htl-examples

request.getResourceResolver()https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/ref/javadoc/org/apache/sling/api/SlingHttpServletRequest.html

If you pass through things like resourceResolver /  resource from user's request you get the right object/permissions based on the user.When getting the resource-resolver via the factory it is disconnected from the user

Are you using the same user/permissions?

Here a working sample for AEM6.2https://github.com/heervisscher/htl-examples/blob/master/core/src/main/java/com/adobe/examples/htl/core/bindings/CustomBindingProvider.java
