That this has 5 different answers in 30 minutes is the problem I have with the Java/Kotlin ecosystem. There's just so much to figure out before you write a line of code.


Personally, I like that I have lots of options available. Compare it to .NET and it's "Microsoft way or the high way".


Both approaches have pros and cons

I prefer having one decent tool thats used across almost all projects like asp net for web

instead of 5 things with their own quirks and pros cons

Its annoying to have to relearn boring things on company change

Like orms, web frameworks, etc.

When you need custom solutions then you gotta put effort anyway


Well, spring is pretty much exactly that, and is probably used more than all the other mentioned projects combined.


Agreed. Having to the ability to make those decisions is a feature of Java development, not a bug. YMMV.
