Choosing a Java Web Framework now?

Hi All, I'm thinking about which framework to choose for web applications. There are so many web frameworks and I'm afraid of trying all of them - it could be time consuming and I wouldn't have to found much with simple examples.

I have experience with jsp, jsf1.2, struts1. I can say I don't like pure jsp with tags. Struts1 again is quite similar to jsp in my view but a bit better. I do like jsf, I find it quite simple to use :), but I'm worried about performance. We used icefaces and lack of get support was really bad.

I know there exist other frameworks, like spring mvc - could be good? . grails, ruby on rails, wicket, gwt, struts2,jsf2

What I need, I'd like to have a versatile framework which doesn't restrict me and at the same time it's no problem to create features e.g: ajax.A bit easier to develop in but still fast I would be scared to sacrifice performance for ease of development.

I do not have any production experience with other frameworks I named.Do you have? Could you share it please? What would you use? 开发者_Go百科Thank you very much. Any experience appreciated.

Here's my take:

I have experience with jsp, jsf1.2, struts1.

You have my condolences.

I can say I don't like pure jsp with tags. Struts1 again is quite similar to jsp in my view but a bit better. I do like jsf, I find it quite simple to use :), but I'm worried about performance. We used icefaces and lack of get support was really bad.

I don't care for JSF or Struts.x at all.

I know there exist other frameworks, like spring mvc - could be good?

Yes, Spring is very good. It's much, much more than a web MVC framework as well. It's performant, it's got traction, it's got the financial backing of VMWare. I think it's the clear winner in the Java EE space.

. grails.

Grails is built on Spring and Hibernate.

, ruby on rails,

Not Java.

wicket,

Could be good. I have no experience with it.

gwt

Write Swing, turn it into JavaScript. I have no experience with it.

I think Spring is a clear winner. It's been on top for five years and hasn't lost a thing.

• For a presentation layer framework: There is plenty to choose and I cannot really recommend one over another as I have only worked with one or two.

• For a general framework to build your application, I recommend Spring. It is well known, support is ok and it is usually very easy to hook whatever specific-purpose framework you may want to use.

http://www.jodd.org/ seems to be a very good, fast and open framework that includes many facets needed for webapplications.

For the presentation layer, GWT with Uibinder could really match your demands :

• you build your pages with xml (pretty much like jsf/facelets)
• it's designed to be fast
• it's a google product, with a really big community
• it's really well integrated with eclipse and easy to start using it
