RE: Wicket 8 GA for production
Recently I mentioned Wicket to a product manager - and his reply indicated that he thought Wicket was for UI's but was actually a different programming language! I quickly pointed out that it's the SAME language as they've used forever - Java! And that's the point! You can build your domain model, business layer and UI - all in the same, awesome, typesafe, high performance language yet still make your UI rock as much as any Angular JS UI (without the productivity and maintenance hits that come with using JavaScript) > -Original Message- > From: Matthias Tonhäuser [mailto:scaronthe...@gmail.com] > Sent: Thursday, 12 October 2017 5:42 AM > To: users@wicket.apache.org > Subject: Re: Wicket 8 GA for production > > Hi, > > I just started using Wicket recently and I quite like what I've seen so > far.

Re: Wicket 8 GA for production
Hi, I just started using Wicket recently and I quite like what I've seen so far. To me, it is superior to JSF because it let's you spend more time writing nice Java code instead of scratching your head whether the correct hmtl attribute is "render" or "reRender". I do think Wicket has a marketing issue, too. When I asked 20 software developers on a local software conference, only one had heard about Wicket. And he thought, it was defunct. Are there any introductory presentations (Englisch / German) one can use to help spread the word about Wicket? Best Matthias
Re: Wicket 8 GA for production
I agree with this wholeheartedly…I was just having this discussion with my boss yesterday. I do not understand (mostly) this drive to push stateless frameworks (client or server). Obviously your framework needs to support stateless as to not waste resources, but almost every application I write is complex enough that without servers side state, I’d spend more time trying to figure out how to store state. It’s one of the things I loved about Apple’s WebObjects and one of the reasons I’ve moved to Wicket over other more “popular” java frameworks. -Lon On Wed, Oct 11, 2017 at 3:35 AM, Andrea Del Bene wrote: > Obviously I 101% agree :-).

RE: Wicket 8 GA for production
I also believe Wicket could really benefit from marketing. Some real world experiences/comparisons could be useful to add to any marketing efforts: After working on Wicket projects since 2008 in a recent contract I had to use Angular JS in a project - OMG!!! It was as painful as pulling teeth and whereas with Wicket I can drive all the fancy Web 2, partial updates in pure Java in Angular JS I had to continually switch between elegant, compilable, typesafe Java and the web's version of "machine language" - JavaScript. Angular JS is 'model/view' based. Listening to any Angular JS evangelist you would think they've single handedly discovered the concept of a 'model/view' approach to UI architecture - i.e. the approach Wicket has had since 2004! So in most Angular JS projects with a Java back end you end up duplicating your model - once in Java (required so you can persist in an ORM) and then again in JavaScript so your model objects can be viewed/edited in the UI - an frustrating duplication exercise which is always a total waste of effort and a massive productivity and maintenance hit compared to Wicket where you only need to create a single POJO model in Java and use simply wrap those in IModel impls to have them work with your UI code. A lot of developers act like "sheeple" and just use new technologies because they think that it must be good because it's "new". I don't think it would be that hard to explain to intelligent developers the benefits of Wicket over other frameworks. > -Original Message- > From: Andrea Del Bene [mailto:an.delb...@gmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, 10 October 2017 8:57 PM > To: users@wicket.apache.org > Subject: Re: Wicket 8 GA for production > > > And guys, you are doing incredible web-framework!

Unfortunately we have no marketing department :-). At the moment there's no "Wicket company" that can do some kind of advertising. What I will certainly do for Wicket 8 is publishing an article at dzone.com. I try to write as many Wicket-related articles as possible on this site. If you have any suggestion or advice they are warmly welcome!

Re: Wicket 8 GA for production
Hello Ilia, I believe wicket 7 and 8 are fully feature compatible, my migration from 7 to 8 was flawless :) WICKET-6105 introducing API break (wicket-datetime module is dropped), wicket-datetime in its current state is available at wicketstuff Our project is opensource :) openmeetings.apache.org :))) demo is available here: https://om.alteametasoft.com:8443/next/ It has free registration you can check it :) On Tue, Oct 10, 2017 at 1:40 AM, Илья Нарыжный wrote: > Martin, Andrea, Maxim, > > Thank you all for your answers! > > GA version will be a gift for us for sure:) Yes - we can use Java 8 source > level with Wicket 7, but we have some internal dependency for resolving of > which we need to invest some good amount of time. > Andrea, regarding my second question.

Re: Wicket 8 GA for production
Martin, Andrea, Maxim, Thank you all for your answers! GA version will be a gift for us for sure:) Yes - we can use Java 8 source level with Wicket 7, but we have some internal dependency for resolving of which we need to invest some good amount of time. Andrea, regarding my second question. It was about compatibility by features between wicket 7 and wicket 8. Are there something missing in Wicket which is present in Wicket 7? Maxim, you wrote about using of Wicket 8 on production. Is that some open source? Can you send a link? You can make it privately:) And guys, you are doing incredible web-framework! Thank you for that. I'm quite surprised that Wicket is not widely used:) Do you have some marketing difficulties? I personally expect that Wicket 8 release will be followed by some marketing events, articles and etc. Will be glad to participate in spreading this web-framework across the World.

Re: Wicket 8 GA for production
Hello Ilia, You can find some more information on the current Wicket 8 status here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46340987/how-stable-is-wicket-8-what-is-supposed-timeline We have been focused on solving a quite big task about removing Joda time from Wicket 8. The issue is in its review stage, so we might be able to produce M8 this week. As Maxim said this should be the last milestone before GA version, at least we don't plan to do any other notable change to the current 8.x API. 2) How accurately Wicket 8 branch currently mimics features from version 7? I'm afraid I didn't completely get this question. Could you elaborate it?

I don't mind to update code base according to API changes. In case this is blocker for you you have to wait until 8.0.0 will be released and API will be finalized. Hopefully M8 will be the last "M" release :) On Sun, Oct 8, 2017 at 11:28 PM, Илья Нарыжный wrote: Dear Wicket developers, Could you please help with understanding of Wicket 8 status? 1) When do you expect GA version be released?

Do you recommend? Or it's better to wait? A little bit more context: we are starting to use RxJava 2 in our application platform http://orienteer.org. And it's much more convenient to use it on Java 8, so we are considering to move the whole our platform to Java 8, but the main our dependency is Wicket:) Thanks, Ilia - Orienteer(http://orienteer.org) - open source Business Application Platform - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
