What are the equivalents of django in Java?

Question

Java

The Spring MVC framework is currently the most popular, but it seems very unusual to me.

Answer 1

Hi
I'm currently learning Java after Python (Django + Tornado). I can say right away that if you need something of the Django level in Java, then you do not need Java. The strength of Java is precisely that you get complete control over what you have at each stage of your web application implementation, and for this you have to pay a lot of work and a certain complexity of the Java toolkit.
If you need the control and power of Java, then you need JavaEE / Spring, if you don't need it, then use Django and don't worry.

Answer 2

There is nothing similar for Java. But there is a similar framework for a closely related language running on the JVM - Grails .

Answer 3

Play will be an alternative, at least from the same niche (startup projects).
This direction in Java is not popular.
