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.

Tech-stack for web application using Kotlin?
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.

Reusable Input Datalist
When I work with HTMX I need isolated component that can be reusable a form. So I create a PHP Function that generate the Input Datalist.

HTMZ inspired form subission
I was inspired by htmz (which was in turn inspired by htmx) and how the author got pretty close to a basic htmx-like experience just using an iframe. I wanted to push it a little further so whipped this demo together. My submission demonstrates progressive enhancement for the form - with js enabled the request targets an iframe that is inserted into the dom, meaning the page doesn't actually navigate (similar to event.preventDefault()). The iframe receives the html response from the request and on load triggers a function to swap out it's contents into the main page.

Example Java Application with Embedded Jetty and a htmx Website
As described on htmx.org: "htmx gives you access to AJAX, CSS Transitions, WebSockets and Server Sent Events directly in HTML, using attributes, so you can build modern user interfaces with the simplicity and power of hypertext"

Apart from the source code itself, the repo's README also gives a bit more details about the various packages I used.

Show HN: Alpine Ajax – If Htmx and Alpine.js Had a Baby
Also, there’s some response header juggling you have to do when submitting forms that have a validation step before redirecting: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/369
I’ve tried to iron out any footguns or server requirements I’ve bumped into while using HTMX & Hotwire in my projects.

🤓 My top 3 Go packages that I wish I'd known about earlier
✨ In recent months, I have been developing web projects using GOTTHA stack: Go + Templ + Tailwind CSS + htmx + Alpine.js. As soon as I'm ready to talk about all the subtleties and pitfalls, I'll post it on my social networks.

Go + Hypermedia - A Learning Journey (Part 1)
I've been digging into HTMX lately (using Python web frameworks) and find the concepts and approach to be interesting and promising. The idea of hypermedia driven systems over the current practice of JavaScript based frameworks (I never really got into React, played with Vue, and enjoy Svelte/SvelteKit) and the ability to chose your language/framework for the backend while primarily leveraging HTML/CSS on the frontend just seems refreshing.

Htmx become 0 clause BSD-licensed
Apparently it changed from 2-clause BSD: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/commit/e16f1865a494b6...
(The zero clause license drops the requirements for preserving the copyright notice when distributing)

Web frameworks we are most excited for in 2024
It would be a sin not to start with something that prides itself on being the front-end library of peace. HTMX skyrocketed in popularity in 2023, gaining most of its GitHub stars during the past year. HTMX is not your average JS framework. If you work in HTMX, you will spend most of your time in the world of hypermedia, looking at web development from a completely different pair of eyes as compared to our usual JS-heavy outlook on modern web development. HTMX leverages the power of the concept of HATEOAS (Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State), enabling developers to access browser features directly from HTML, instead of using Javascript.
