Just curious -- why?
- pjmlp 8y agoShort answer, experience and employers. My experience doing Web development in Java started with joining a team that was ramping up a project on WebSphere 5.1, alongside a migration from BEA WebLogic. I went through a couple of WebSphere, JBoss and TomcatEE versions up to JEE 6, was the technical lead for an in-house JSF framework built on top of RichFaces, and on very last JEE project used PrimeFaces. All the employers that I worked for, mostly used JEE stacks for their Java projects. Spring was the exception, rather than the norm. Additionally, even if a bit slowly, many of the Spring improvements ended up in JEE and Spring also supports the JSR related to JEE anyway. Nowadays I live in the .NET world, and the Java teams next door are happily delivering JEE based solutions. So if I was suddenly asked to architect a Java based solution, naturally it would be JEE based.
