We Recommend These Resources

A summary of a discussion about the advantages of Tapestry over Struts:

  • Exceptional exception reporting
  • Significantly less code
  • Live class reloading
  • Sensible defaults, especially for SEO-friendly URLs
  • Great community
  • Flexibility and customizability

Interestingly, the quality of Tapestry's documentation was mentioned ... favorably! Between the revised home page, and Tapestry JumpStart (and Igor's coming book), I think we're headed in the right direction in terms of documentation going from a liability to an asset.
