Javalin – a simple web framework for Java and Kotlin
One of the good things about it is that using asynchrony is optional. If you don't have to call out anywhere to build the response, processing can all stay in the handler's calling thread. If you do, you can return a future and have the library handle the async for you.
One downside is that it is based on Jetty which isn't considered the most performant backend. A lib with a similar API but based on Netty is Jooby [1] which scores well in the Techempower benchmarks.

Is the Spring framework too heavy and over-designed?
Jooby and Helidon SE are among the best.

The Flask Mega-Tutorial
Speaking of backend development, recently I gave Jooby[1] a try after discovering it was one of the world's top performer in Tech Empower's web framework benchmark[2].
Surprisingly enough, it's terribly easy to put together a REST API with Jooby. I wonder why it's adoption rate is so low.

What is the current state of the art for efficiently handling blocking requests in Java/Spring?
Do you need to use Spring btw? If you want to broaden the tool selection I've had great success with i.e Jooby (https://jooby.io/) together with Kotlin coroutines. Another alternative is the KTOR framework.

Java Equivalent of Express.js for REST
Jooby I think is the best bet. https://jooby.io/ watch out for jooby dot org I think someone sniped the domain.

Fully Static Java Webserver - Is this a bad idea?
Spring Boot or JAXRS. I personally use Jooby a lot which is similar in style to spark but has annotation support and isn't a singleton.

On the Future of Akka and Lightbend
It’s a shame that the Play framework is being abandoned. v1 had a lot of great ideas, but v2 kind of jumped off the cliff into Scala lala-land, where it got lost in the weeds. It never really recovered.
If you’re looking for a straightforward Java framework similar to Play v1 check out Ninja:
https://www.ninjaframework.org/
For me at least, it hits a sweet spot of enabling fast productive development and maintainable code.
