Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

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.

Happy path: Publishing a Web Component to Vaadin Add-on Directory
Did you find an excellent custom element that would make sense in your Vaadin Java web application? Maybe that is a web component that you previously published yourself in npmjs.com?

Spring Security and OpenID Connect
Finally, we will create a HomeController to make the test effect more visually significant by controlling the content displayed on the page. We will display different information according to the role and use the thymeleaf template engine to render.

Spring Security OAuth2 Login
Finally, we create the Controller class and use the thymeleaf template engine to build the home page information. Different permission information sees different results in the home page list.

Can you do web development with java?
You can also use SSR (Server Sided Rendering) to generate the front end before it is returned, reducing the need for JS. Thymeleaf is an example of that.

Can I use Java to build a website?
You can use Java for Backend and Frontend. A relative new kid on the block for Frontend is Qute. The general keyword you are searching for is Java Templating Engine. Specific examples would be Thymeleaf or FreeMarker. There are some framework, which offer a lot more than templating like Vaadin or Wicket. Some are just specifications like Jakarta Faces with some of their implementations MyFaces or Mojarra.
What are some alternatives?
PrimeFaces - Ultimate Component Suite for JavaServer Faces
FreeMarker - Apache Freemarker
Apache Wicket - Apache Wicket - Component-based Java web framework
Apache Velocity - Mirror of Apache Velocity Engine
