While the rest of the Java world was devolving into annotation hell, AOP and other nightmares, these Java microframeworks showcased what happens when you forego legacy Java and leverage modern Java language features... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

The size statistics page is super cool: https://github.com/byronka/minum/blob/master/docs/size_comparisons.md Aside from that, I've also had good experiences with Dropwizard - which is way simpler than Spring Boot but at the same time uses a bunch of idiomatic packages (like Jetty, Jersey, Jackson, Logback and so on): https://www.dropwizard.io/en/stable/ I do wonder whether Minum would ever end up on the... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

One of the most common web frameworks used is Spring Boot - here is their quickstart: https://spring.io/quickstart Newer alternatives are: https://micronaut.io/ and https://quarkus.io/ If you want to have something really simple look at Javalin: https://javalin.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

Counter-example: https://javalin.io/ uses Servlets, and seems to be doing quite fine without annotations. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
