Hello Amit, You do not need Ant in order to use Struts. Ant is a tool for compiling/jarring/installing/etc that can make building/testing/installing much more efficient (and easier - in my opinion). Personally, I think it saves me quite a bit of time during testing, so I would recommend it. The Struts architecture includes java classes, so you will need to have some method for compiling them (javac, JBuilder, etc). Other than that, you can do everything else in a text editor if you would like. I would suggest taking a look at Ant, and maybe join the list server for additional help with it.
Actually, I have never looked at the documentation. I kinda learned as I went along, so I would not be a good person to ask for this. Hopefully someone else on the list can give their opinion.
