Jetty & spring are awesome

One reason I love java is it has so many tools out there to solve the problems you need to solve. I needed to write a server-side app that was way under the scope of jBoss, so I downloaded Jetty and used spring.

For those who don't know, Jetty is a super fast and light weight servlet container that uses NIO heavily. For apps that don't need stuff like transactions its perfect. And pair that up with Spring and you have a super fast & lightweight app that still has very good design.

So check out Jetty and Spring.
