Same thing with the Grails framework, which is another Rails framework for Java eco-system. After Grails got refactored between 2.x and 3.x which broke all plugins, most new Java projects went with Spring Boot. Popularity of the Grails framework has declined a lot since the release of Grails 3.0. But the strong decline the last few years I mostly blame on all MVC framework not being interesting enough for new young developers. Only David Heinemeier Hanson has a loud strong voice telling the world about how fantastic the Rails and MVC web application really are. Which makes sense considering that I feel Rails is still super popular. But my preference is not Ruby, but rather Java :-) and I feel Grails is still awesome. And I also use Spring Boot for some projects.
