  Sort of sounds like Apache Wicket (https://wicket.apache.org/). I used it for a few projects in the mid-late 2000s.

  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.

  I think Apache Wicket takes a similar approach for Java? https://wicket.apache.org/

  I like the approach, and it's good to see more projects in this space.

  I believe Wicket is somewhat similar (and still actively developed).
