    What is Apache Wicket?

    Apache Wicket is a component-based web application framework for the Java programming language. It provides a structured approach to building web applications, using a component-driven model that simplifies the development process. The framework abstracts away the complexities of low-level web programming, allowing developers to focus on building robust, scalable, and maintainable web applications

    Highlights

    • Component-driven architecture: Wicket organizes web applications into reusable components, enabling modular and extensible design
    • Java-centric development: Wicket allows developers to work primarily in Java, leveraging their existing Java skills and toolsets
    • Stateful web applications: Wicket maintains state on the server-side, reducing the complexity of managing client-side state
    • Large ecosystem and community: Wicket has been adopted by a wide range of organizations, from governments to financial institutions, and is supported by an active community of contributors and developers.
