Tapestry Making Web Development a Breeze?

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the yet-another-web-dev-tool dept.

An anonymous reader writes "IBM DeveloperWorks has an interesting article on how to simplify your Web-based development with Tapestry, an open-source, Java-based framework that makes developing a breeze. The article shows you around Tapestry, from installation to file structure. See for yourself how Tapestry facilitates servlet-based Web application development using HTML and template tags."

    "Our apologies The IBM developerWorks Web site is currently under maintenance.
    Please try again later. Thank you."

    Isn't that French for "we got slashdotted"?

    Seaside is technically superior, it uses continuations to mantain state and this make it really transparent...

    If you want a continuations-based open-source Web framework built on top of a stable, popular, well-tested language, you might check out Jifty, a Perl Web framework. Wait a second, you say -- Perl doesn't have continuations! This is true. Perl doesn't have continuations. Jifty does. It's only a "developer release" right now, but it's surprisingly useable all the same.

    (Disclaimer: I work for Best Practical Solutions, the company behind Jifty. Yeah, yeah, shameless self-promotion and all that. It's a spiffy framework, and it's open-source.)
