There is quite some boilerplate and for someone inexperienced it is quite a big leap.

Ive been developing with spring for past 3 years and so far I freaking love it.

Ive gotten quite quick with it so I can do an mvp with auth, logging, microservice patterns really fast.

And when project grows in complexity it is very maintainable.

But if you are not expirienced and don't care about maintainability and want something fast then node& express is a way to go imho

Thanks for your insight. I agree with your comment about the trade off between the time it takes to fully learn the framework vs the productivity that you will get. I think that’s true for all frameworks. There’s also Javelin if you need something smaller and quick to pick in Java that is similar to Express.js.
