Django like framework for Java

Viewed 33714

I am a Java developer. Is there some Django/Ruby-on-Rails kind of framework for Java? I don't like to create the admin panel for each project I do. It's boring to do the same thing again and again. Also for my new project I have a short deadline and I would like to use some kind of Java framework that speeds up development.

Recently I found a framework which looked very much like django. It's called playframework and you can find it here:

http://playframework.org/

I suggest you watch the video on the front page.

Another Java based django-like framework is Spring Roo, but in my opinion it's not quite ready. Last time I used it the documentation was virtually non-existent.

I would be cautious about doing a project with a short deadline using a framework that I am not familiar with. It sounds like a recipe for deadline overruns. Stick with technology that you are already familiar with ... and wait for a project with more relaxed deadlines where you can afford the time to make a few mistakes.
