com.samskivert.velocity.package.html Maven / Gradle / Ivy
Provides parts of a simple web application framework built around the
Velocity template engine.
The web application framework provided by this package is simple
and intended for use in small projects with limited scope. It is not
intended to be all things, nor to evolve into something that makes
toast. It builds upon Velocity, a template engine whose
philosophies
about the separation of markup and code I agree with.
Velocity is designed to be used explicitly by servlets in
applications where the design is structured around the servlets
rather than the pages generated by the servlets. This is in contrast
to the JSP approach where the pages themselves dictate the structure
of the application and the servlets are automatically generated to
conform to that structure. This package provides a means by which to
automatically map serlvet-like units of code to templates in a way
akin to JSP's approach but without the combination of code and
markup.
