Posted June 26, 2020 I recently learned how to use Java, and as a project I am interested in creating a simple backend for a webapp with java to be hosted on heroku. I am planning on the webpages being written in HTML, or possibly React.js. I have started off using Java servlets and Tomcat and am wondering whether there is a better solution.

If you just used Spring there is more manual set up you need to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
