Javalin is the bomb! I don’t know why Java community likes to make things complicated.

  I like Jetty. Javalin is nice for Kotlin but Jetty + java has worked well for me.

    What do you use for routing and DI? do you use Jetty handlers or the servlet API?

      Dropwizard is cool if you write REST microservices. It uses embedded jetty, JAX-RS, Jackson, metrics, etc. As far as I know it's inspiration for Spring Boot, and it's simpler and ready to use on production.

  “An idiot admires complexity, a genius admires simplicity, a physicist tries to make it simple, for an idiot anything the more complicated it is the more he will admire it, if you make something so clusterfucked he can't understand it he's gonna think you're a god cause you made it so complicated nobody can understand it. That's how they write journals in Academics, they try to make it so complicated people think you're a genius.” - Terry A. Davis
