Hello,
I can only agree 100% with what you said. I came to Wicket after a lot
of php dev, and it was a very strong evolution. Not all benefits were
due to wicket, some were inherent of the java language (type safety,
semi compiled code...), but the wicket's built in components are very
useful abstractions of commons web components (label, form, wizard,
palette, sessions, ...).
And AFAIK, it's very well designed, easy to learn, very powerfull...
Long life to Wicket!

Hi,
Just wanted to take time to say I LOVE WICKET! It is a completely different
approach from the other MVC frameworks. For modularity, stability, ease of use,
and separation of concerns, it blows them out of the water.
We have been using Wicket 1.3 intensively for a month now. We are building a
major public website (it has to stay under wraps until after its official
launch on May 1st). Learning Wicket has not been without teething troubles -
after all, no framework is perfect. But, the inherent ease of splitting things
up into components, and the inherent encapsulation that comes with this, has
shrunk our development time markedly. It also gives us a high level of
confidence in what we've built, because once you get something working in
isolation, it keeps working wherever you eventually put it. This is, I think,
the single biggest benefit it gives us.
We've thrown our site together quickly and under great time pressure, and
Wicket has delivered. The inherent type safety you get from building the site
from Java classes helps hugely. It means very few run-time bugs. The separation
of markup means our web designer can work in the same codebase as our Java guys
too, so no duplication of effort. In fact, what we have done wouldn't be
possible in such a short time frame with any other framework.
So, a huge thank you to the Wicket development team. Keep up the good work!
