tinystruct is a lightweight, modular Java application framework for developing command-line and web applications. It aims to minimise boilerplate and configuration while providing a transparent and extensible architecture.
Applications define functionality using annotated actions and can expose the same code through the command-line dispatcher or a built-in HTTP server. The framework also provides a plugin-based architecture and utilities for tasks such as executing SQL statements, downloading resources and generating Java objects.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
