Ask HN: What's your Go-to web stack for Java?
I really like Bootique as an alternative to Spring Boot: https://bootique.io/
For higher loads I pick Vert.x.
Other than that, it's almost always 3 J's: Jetty, Jersey, Jackson.

Javalin – a simple web framework for Java and Kotlin
Micronaut has a share of the space too.

However, you’re right that Spring Boot has the lions share of the Java ecosystem.

Spark – A web micro framework for Java and Kotlin
I've used vert.x in a big project once. I don't ever want to do that again. Performance is pretty good, but the developer experience is beyond clunky.
My current favourite Java server framework is Micronaut.
Great performance and easy to develop for!

Java consumes 38x less energy than Python
I wonder how much you'd save with Micronaut: https://micronaut.io/
> Micronaut is a software framework for the Java virtual machine platform. It is designed to avoid reflection, thus reducing memory consumption and improving start times. Features which would typically be implemented at run-time are instead pre-computed at compile time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micronaut_(framework)
I don't think you'd go down to 9, but something like 20-30 could be doable.

mlfx FXML compiler
I'd like to introduce my project. It is called mlfx. It can compile FXML ahead of time. It is basically an annotation processor, which internally uses Micronaut framework's AST abstraction and compiles fxml files directly to JVM bytecode. This decreases UI load time and also helps with native-image reflection configs. It also has some compliance tests that load compiled code and check resulting object graph against one loaded by javafx-xml. It also has some drawbacks now, but, please, read README. Now I'm successfully using it in two production projects.

For the server Quarkus and Micronaut might be interesting besides Spring Boot. Quarkus is more popular and backed by RedHat (so probably here to stay).

Would love some guidance in how to get started with building web projects with Java.
Spring boot is still The King. Although I've not done more than hello world with Micronaut, it might have easier learning curve than Spring (and concepts are similar to Spring so you can carry over later to learn Spring). It could also be a useful skill in world of microservices these days.
