Convention over configuration Say goodbye to endless XML configuration files. Tapestry embraces convention over configuration, so say goodbye to endless XML configuration files. Tapestry is based on components, which allows heavy reuse of elements across multiple pages. Code and templates are lean and mean. Live class reloading means that the time between seeing an error and providing the fix is seconds, not minutes. Advanced exception reporting gives you all the tools you need to fix your problem: not just a stack trace, but every bit of information you need to know about what Tapestry was doing, why it was doing it, what went wrong, and how to fix it. h3.

Advanced Exception reporting It gives you all the tools you need to fix your problem: not just a stack trace, but every bit of information you need to know about what was doing, why it was doing it, what went wrong, and how to fix it. Tapestry is pure Java. It doesn't use Java reflection, and is built to cleanly support large numbers of concurrent threads. Better yet, it automatically includes standard performance-enhancing strategies such as GZip content compression, _javascript_ aggregation, and far future expires headers ... all of which cut down on the number of requests from the client, and the size of the responses sent back. h3. Fast h3. Tapestry is ... agile Without Java reflection use is built to cleanly support large numbers of concurrent threads. Includes standard performance-enhancing strategies such as GZip content compression, _javascript_ aggregation, and far future expires headers. Easy to code, easy to test, easy to deploy. Tapestry encourages you to work in small increments with immediate feedback so you are always making fast, forward progress. Want to code in Groovy or Scala instead? No problem\! h3. Testable h3. Tapestry is ... scalable Built for testability provides nice testing functionalities enchanting TDD techniques. [Code source covertura report|http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5.1/tapestry-core/cobertura/index.html] Tapestry works well for everything from small applications with just a handful of pages, all the way up to large teams and applications with hundreds of pages and custom components. For big teams, Tapestry's pages-and-components design ensures that the efforts of different developers stay automatically integrated. h3. Scalable Tapestry scales up big on a single server, but also gives you great options when you need to switch to a cluster. Tapestry makes it easy to store information on the client (as hidden fields or query parameters) or on the server (in the session). Tapestry scales up big on a single server, and offers great options into a cluster. Ready for REST, it is suitable for the most staless and stateful applications. h3. Tapestry is ... component based h3. Component based Tapestry applications consist of pages and components. Components are easy to write, and easy to hook together. Simple components can be just a few lines of code, complex components may have their own templates and contain other components. Tapestry always has an overall map of your application, because it knows all the pages and all the components within the pages ... this lets Tapestry do all the "boring plumbing" of web application development. Easy to write, easy to hook together and very reusable. Code and templates are lean and mean h3. Tapestry is ... adaptable h3. Adaptable Tapestry's architecture is open and extensible.
