Apache Wicket Reviews

vert.x mentions (26)

• Spark – A web micro framework for Java and Kotlin

  Https://vertx.io/ It's actively maintained with full time developers, performant, supports Kotlin out of the box, and has more features? - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Reactive database access on the JVM

  Hibernate Reactive integrates with Vert.x, but an extension allows to bridge to Project Reactor if wanted. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• What's the state of server-side frameworks with Kotlin support today for small teams?

  Personally, I like vertx, it is modular and you can pick and choose what you need. It also has support for kotlin coroutines, https://vertx.io/, https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-examples/tree/4.x/kotlin-examples. Source: about 1 year ago

• Anything close beam/otp for other languages?

  I really like Eclipse Vert.x... As both an Erlang dev and Java dev, it's a great synergy and soon to have support for Virtual Threads similar to BEAM. Source: about 1 year ago

• Favorite hidden gem library?

• We're breaking up with JavaScript front ends

  Sort of sounds like Apache Wicket (https://wicket.apache.org/). I used it for a few projects in the mid-late 2000s. I really liked it being server side and the concept of having object-oriented HTML (code paired with HTML snippets). I haven't had a need to use it since 2014, so haven't kept up with the project. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Can I use Java to build a website?

  You can use Java for Backend and Frontend. A relative new kid on the block for Frontend is Qute. The general keyword you are searching for is Java Templating Engine. Specific examples would be Thymeleaf or FreeMarker. There are some framework, which offer a lot more than templating like Vaadin or Wicket. Some are just specifications like Jakarta Faces with some of their implementations MyFaces or Mojarra. Source: over 1 year ago

• Getting back into Java after 12-15 years away?

  Perhaps, a good competitor for JSF is Apache Wicket. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Options for high level front-end frameworks for Java developers

  I have used https://wicket.apache.org/ in the past and I think it matches your needs. It's a simple mvc that focuses on the actual java code writing and uses html only on the layout of your components in your page. Source: about 2 years ago

• Spas Were a Mistake

  Is this the Wicket you're referring to? https://wicket.apache.org/ What's the best intro you know to how it's components work, and the benefits and tradeoffs over other approaches? - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
