javalin VS sagan

If you've read this far, you might be interested to know that Javalin has been offering Brotli compression through jvm-brotli for three years already, and that there have been no (reported) issues. In other words, the effort required to release and maintain this is probably not huge.

I'm a big fan of Ktor (ktor.io) but another reasonable lightweight alternative is Javelin (https://javalin.io/). Heck even Spring Boot isn't that bad. HikariCP + JooQ (has both java and kotlin codegen) for DB access if you need and you're good to go.

A similar alternative that does not rely on web sockets is https://htmx.org. I have greatly enjoyed using it with some simpler web frameworks like https://javalin.io to do some prototyping and smaller projects. I'm sure if someone made a plug and play UI library like material UI for Angular on top of htmx you could absolutely fly through MVPs.

Javalin

If you're already familiar with most of the concepts around HTTP and web services, I'd recommend using something like https://javalin.io/ which is light weight frame work that makes getting something up and running quickly a very easy task.

I've been looking at https://javalin.io/ Seems close enough to express and some big names are using it, so I wouldn't say it's fizzling out

Javalin (https://javalin.io) is strongly inspired by Express and Koa, so you should feel right at home:

If you want to do a proper comparison between the two, I would be happy to help with code examples from Javalin's side. I could even host it on https://javalin.io as a "Comparison to Jooby" blog post.

Empeza con esto https://spring.io/

If you want to do web apps, I'd recommend Django (a python framework) https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/, but you can do Rails, or Phoenix, or Spring Boot, or whatever. It doesn't terribly matter *which* one you do, as they share characteristics, and, chances are, your company will be using a different one :). Just pick one and go. You can do it. You know a lot more than you think.

With the idea planted, and already internalized that I would use spring-boot to create our API, I needed to decide on which engine it would be built. I had been studying Unreal Engine for some time, but because I had more know-how in Unity and because I found this AMAZING weather system, I opted for our last alternative.

This is an introduction article on how to build a RESTful application in Kotlin using Spring Boot 3 and MongoDB Atlas.

As said in the title, we will focus on the dependency inversion principle and one of its application : dependency injection. For production-ready applications, it would be better to rely on a framework and not implement its own container. For it, the java ecosystem have 3 frameworks available : Spring, Guice and Dagger.

Im stuck between just starting up a project, or if following some starter project for learning. I did a tutorial on the spring.io website, but thats about all I have done so far.

I've been following the guides at spring.io, but there's just so many guides there. My company has a template for starting new projects (includes frontend + backend + database) so I decided to start my project using it, thinking the basic guides I followed on REST APIs would help me but I quickly realized it's more complicated than I thought.

Thanks for the advice. I followed some guides on spring.io, but because I am using a template for starting new projects provided by my company, I found most of them couldn't really translate properly to the template.

Spring makes building web applications fast and hassle-free (spring.io). By removing much of the boilerplate code and configuration associated with web development, you get a modern web programming model that streamlines the development of server-side HTML applications, REST APIs, and bidirectional, event-based systems.
