I'm not a java man but a quick google leads to a lot of "10 java frameworks you should know", "17 popular java frameworks", and a "list of java frameworks" on Wikipedia that's dozens long.

Frontend wise it seems similar at a glance, in that you could use react for the last 10 years and be fine. Or you could jump from react to vue to svelte and make life hard for yourself.

I looked at some of the articles you mention and they are completely clueless

They include stuff like

- Hibernate - this is just an ORM

- JHipster - this is just opinionated Spring

- mybatis - again ORM

- Grails - > This is Groovy and not Java

- Play -> This is Scala primary

- Primefaces -> an implementation of Oracle/JavaEE

I think you get the idea. I am actually amazed at who is the target audience of this kind of blog posts.

Makes sense, probably just ad click driving spam page, appreciate the info :)

I wonder how much of people being burnout on "front end frameworks" is because of "17 must know javascript frameworks" articles akin to the JAVA stuff at the top of google.
