On the "putting together a web frontend and a Java backend" topic, it may be 
interesting to look at Vaadin, which is an open source framework to build web 
applications using Java (you code everything in Java, an equivalent GUI is 
generated and all behavior that comes from user interaction is actually 
triggered on the backend through a protocol like RPC; pretty much like the old 
GWT but smarter and with less boilerplate code). They also have a dev preview 
on something called Flow, which is supposed to give a Java backend direct 
access to the DOM, somewhat similar to real-time server-side rendering but with 
an optimised communication protcol instead (no need to care about APIs, REST, 
whatever). Anyway, since we're already on a Java ecosystem, those may be easier 
than modeling APIs and adopting JavaScript frameworks that may or may not be 
alive tomorrow.

yes, JS = javascript, TypeScript etc. No, nothing to do with Java of
course. Just that JS/TS are the languages that seem to be popular for
web app development these days, and Java for the back-end. The
connection between front and back-end that people seem to prefer these
days is REST APIs, which both Java and JS can do easily enough.
