Apache Tapestry is a component-oriented framework for creating highly scalable web applications in Java. It provides a component-based development model with live class reloading, built-in Ajax support, type-safe URL generation, strong convention-over-configuration principles, and deep IDE integration. Tapestry applications are highly testable and work well with dependency injection via Tapestry IoC. It is maintained by the Apache Software Foundation.
