The past couple of years have I been working with Apache Wicket (https://wicket.apache.org/). I am very satisfied with Wicket.

Unfortunately there is not a lot of buzz around it lately. We are trying to breathe new life into it. So on 1 April we are organizing a user day in Dordrecht, NL. Do I see you there? (Sorry about the tracking parameters, but without these the link does not work 😞 ) https://www.meetup.com/wicket-enthusiasts-europe/events/313524866/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=announce_event&utm_source=link&utm_version=v2&member_id=479250162

#wicket #apacheWicket

De afgelopen paar jaar ben ik bezig met Apache Wicket (https://wicket.apache.org/). Ik ben hier erg enthousiast over.

Helaas is er nog maar weinig aandacht voor. Wij proberen het wat nieuw leven in te blazen. Dus op 1 april organiseren wij een gebruikersdag in Dordrecht, NL. Zie ik je daar? (Sorry voor de trackingparameters, maar zonder deze doet de link het niet 😞) https://www.meetup.com/wicket-enthusiasts-europe/events/313524866/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=announce_event&utm_source=link&utm_version=v2&member_id=479250162

Request for comments/trying out stuff...

https://github.com/dashorst/quarkus-wicket

It is not published yet to quarkiverse, so you need to build it yourself for now.

gh repo clone dashorst/quarkus-wicket && cd quarkus-wicket && mvn install

and then you can craft your first quarkus & wicket application using the quarkus commandline:

quarkus create app --maven --java=21 --code --extensions=io.quarkiverse.wicket:quarkus-wicket:999-SNAPSHOT org.acme:acme

Check it out and let me know wydt!

#ApacheWicket #quarkus

So I have almost finished a working 1.0 quarkus extension for #ApacheWicket

I am trying to get the codestart to put an html file in a package folder structure. When that is done, it should work for starting to discover what a quarkus and wicket combination has for limitations and possibilities.

When you can generate a working wicket quarkus app it's time to weite some docs etc and release it to a grander audience.

See https://github.com/dashorst/quarkus-wicket for the code.

As a #Java developer, do you really need frontend #JavaScript frameworks? Why would you not just stick to Java and use one of the many great libraries that are available for it? Join Martijn Dashorst and @marcushellberg, and @frankdelporte on the Foojay  #podcast!

For the next Friends of OpenJDK (Foojay.io) @foojay  #Podcast, I talked with @marcushellberg (#Vaadin) and Martijn Dashorst (#ApacheWicket) about web development with #Java, including #Thymeleaf and #htmx. Do you really need a JavaScript framework? Why would you not just stick to Java and use one of its many great libraries?
