I've been developing apps using java for over 2 years. during these time, i've come across different java framework. previously, i had never have any interaction with java at all. Microsoft was my only development platform.It was a kind of surprise to realise the many different framework available for java, while in Microsoft, the only thing that you need to know is .NET framework.Ok, back to the topic, at the moment in time, i think no framework can competes with Spring. it has collected a huge community of developers and importantly has the financial backing of VMWare.I said spring is the champion doensn't mean that other framework is not as good as spring. Frameworks such as struts2 and Tapastry etc.. are very good and highly matured. The only thing different is the scope of the framework. While other framework besides spring specialize in solving a particular area of probem, Spring by its nature is to cover almost all aspect of application development in JAVA.The other area where Spring rightly deserved the popularity it has today is due to the fast pace to maturity.
