Answer 3

No matter what anyone says, I really like Java. I use only ServletAPI + Freemarker + Tomcat to create a project of any complexity, this is more than enough IMHO. Routing with reflection. It's nice to look at the code, beauty is obtained if the hands are straight. You can twist and turn the project as you like, Java is a very powerful technology even when using such a minimum as I have. Everything works very quickly and like clockwork, exception handling is generally pleasing.
I don’t want to touch the feelings of those who understand, but I tried to use frameworks, I almost threw up from this muck. It is much more pleasant to write code once by hand and sharpened for a narrow specialization of the project - I don’t want to expand it!

Answer 4

I am not at all competent in this matter, but it seems like Grails is an analogue of ROR with the MVC model.

Answer 5

There is also a very convenient Spring WebMVC
