Which technologies in java are more than dead and which ones are relevant??

Question

Java

of those that are known
Well, for example, supported but simply dead. Swing which came with javaFX,
applets, jsp as such and uses its JSF framework, AWT SWT.
Of the progressive and used. Spring , servlet , gwt and almost all of the enterprise
. Maybe I'm wrong, correct and add more you know.

Answer 1

Why do you need? Teach to add to resume? I would not teach any of these technologies specifically, "on the table." Needed on the project - then delve into it. Sell ​​yourself simply as a competent Java programmer, without focusing on knowledge of 100,500 frameworks.

Answer 2

1. GWT - rather dead, not used in many new projects. In the existing ones, they are already trying to crawl to other frameworks
2. The technology stack is determined by the specifics of the project being worked on. Therefore, first decide on the tasks that are in front of you, and then decide how to achieve the goal.

Answer 3

If you're talking about the enterprise, then it's better not to discount Swing so easily =)

Answer 4

I wouldn't postpone SWING yet. Although Java 8 is already actively used, but support for old applications is still needed
Regarding jsf / jsp - look at the requirements for vacancies ... as for me they have not died out yet ... perhaps they will expect it in the near future, but for now. ..

Answer 5

Swing... how many people bury him) They won't bury him in any way and still won't be able to. Intyrprise he is, yes. But JavaFX, which replaced it, came already dead.
GWT not in
JSF/JSP themes are also forever buried, forever alive..

Answer 6

Dead - Java Applet, c3p0, dbcp, apache ant (developing, but not relevant)
Alive - Spring project family, guava, guice, hikaricp, java ee stack (optional, in demand), jackson, slf4j+logback, netty, maven, gradle, testng

Answer 7

I work with Swing every day, you're wasting your time. Applets deliberately did not delve into much when studying, but I still heard that it was used somewhere. It all depends on the project and your prof. interests.
