Just want to share:
last night here at Seattle Java User group we had a round table discussion
where people were presenting WEB UI frameworks they use and tried to highlight
things they love about them. There were many: Millstone, Barracuda, echo2,
JSF, Struts, Tapestry, Tiles/Sitemesh, DWR, RubyOnRails
Every presenter had about 6-8 minutes for a sales pitch and at the end
people answered the question:
If you were a king and decide what framework to use for next project, which
framework will you use? (People voted once only for just one framework)
Tapestry 15;
Struts 5;
JSF 3;
The rest got zero or 1 votes;
I could attribute Tapestry's warm reception to my presenter skills :)
but in reality it is the Howard's hard work and Tapestry community make the
framework so appealing to developers.
I ask everybody to speak about Tapestry more frequently on occasions and this
way we all will benefit from wider Tapestry adoption.
