Ask HN: Anyone Interested in Taking over Jsweet.org?
You can take a look at https://github.com/j4ts, which contains some Java libs transpiled by JSweet to TS/JS. The AWT/Swing implementation is just a proof of concept, but some other libs are fully functional like awt/geom.
However, you have to be aware that the initial purpose of JSweet was not to port all Java libs to JS. JSweet allows the transpiler to be customized (with extensions) to map Java APIs to JS ones so that you don't necessarily need a JS runtime. It's all explained in the "Extending the transpiler" section of the core doc: https://github.com/cincheo/jsweet/blob/master/doc/jsweet-lan...

I like to discuss ui frameworks for java backend?
We used a lot GWT with UI frameworks like dominokit or Vaadin. There is another transpiler not mentioned before: https://github.com/cincheo/jsweet It has better JS ecosystem integration and some library ports. I never used it, but it worth to try.

Can you do web development with java?
Well, you can, in theory use any language if you transpile it - that way, you'd end up using a single language across the stack (even if you're technically using JS). An example of this would be JSweet.

Looking for Talented FTC Programmers to develop a Java to JS Transpiler
TheVirtual FTC simulator team is looking for FTC team members or alumni who want a programming challenge. We want your help adapting jsweet https://www.jsweet.org/ to transpile Java code to JS. Programmer will be working on automatic translation of Java to Javascript. Experience with both Java and Web development is ideal.

Ask HN: Why isn't GWT or Vaadin more popular among Java developers?
Definitely worth a look thank you! On another note, I've experimented successfully with https://www.jsweet.org/.

The Future Of The Web
I look forward to getting back into front-end if I can do it in Java only (which can be done today) ... and not be looked down upon by frontenders, the CSS tricks designer crowd and the highly vocal JavaScript crowd.

The conjunction of the web
But how do we explain the complexity of the current toolset? This is where the Law of the instrument kicks in: "If the only tool you have is a hammer, it is tempting to treat everything as if it were a nail.". Even if JavaScript was born in the web, JavaScript centered frameworks do not fit properly in the web. That is why we have huge bundles of JavaScript, that is why RSC are necessary (things like RSC were already a thing in Vaadin) and that is how JavaScript became the Birmingham screwdriver.

7 years with Vaadin (+SpringBoot) in production. Do we still enjoy it?
It’s been 7 years since we deployed our first Vaadin app for production. The whole process has been more than interesting. We developed the application according to an analysis (several modules for the agenda in the field of local government) based on a verbal assignment. The customer started testing on our server and after 2 months found only 3 bugs and requested 2 modifications beyond the original brief. Once implemented, we installed it at the customer’s site. The application started for the first time and is still running :-).

The Future (and the Past) of the Web Is Server Side Rendering
> Slightly off topic, but I found JSF the most productive out of any framework.
In my experience, it has been a horrible technology (even when combined with PrimeFaces) for complex functionality.
When you have a page that has a bunch of tabs, which have tables with custom action buttons, row editing, row expansion, as well as composite components, modal dialogs with other tables inside of those, various dropdowns or autocomplete components and so on, it will break in new ways all the time.
Sometimes the wrong row will be selected, even if you give every element a unique ID, sometimes updating a single table row after AJAX will be nigh impossible, other times the back end methods will be called with the wrong parameters, sometimes your composite components will act in weird ways (such as using the button to close a modal dialog doing nothing).
When used on something simple, it's an okay choice, but enterprise codebases that have been developed for years (not even a decade) across multiple versions will rot faster than just having a RESTful API and some separate SPA (that can be thrown out and rewritten altogether, if need be).
Another option in the space is Vaadin which feels okay, but has its own problems: https://vaadin.com/
Of course, my experiences are subjective and my own.
