sagan VS Micronaut

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.

Micronaut has a share of the space too.

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

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!

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.

I don't think you'd go down to 9, but something like 20-30 could be doable.

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.

when it comes to full stack frameworks, Micronaut(https://micronaut.io/) is actually good and pleasant to work with.

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).

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.
