Hi Java Community,
Students trying to learn Java and sometimes professional developers seeking to expand his skill set ask me, how to get started with web application development in Java ?.
The Java EE learning path is not easy with the amount of information you have to deal and students can feel overwhelmed.
Based on my experience, I've suggested them focus on the following stack: JSF, EJB3/CDI, JAX-RS, and JPA .
I need your opinions about the following questions:
Is still Java Server Pages (JSP) and JSTL relevant in java web application development ?.
Should learn JSP or begin with a lightweight java web framework ?
What is a good Java stack to begin developing web applications?.
Thanks in advance !.
