Poll: What Web Application Framework do you use?

[mindcrime]

I don't see what the point is in this poll. First, similar polls have been done recently, so this information already exists. Secondly, that's a fairly small (and seemingly arbitrary) subset of the available choices... Why not include, for example:

Pylons / Pyramid

Wicket

Groovy on Grails

Stripes

Lift

Compojure

Spring MVC

Snap

and any number of other popular frameworks?

All of that said, my primary choice is Groovy on Grails, so I voted "other."

I have abandoned server side frameworks all together, with the exception of a REST toolkit now days if you are building a web application the client side toolkits coupled with a REST service layer offer a much more robust development platform as well as provides a more usable and better performing end product.

But would you recommend that approach for a beginner, or is it better to start with a framework so you don't have to think of everything, and evolve your understanding?

How did you decide on your approach?

[phaylon]

Other (Perl and Catalyst or Web::Simple, depending on the project).

[peelle]

Mostly Catalyst - http://www.catalystframework.org/

[BrainScraps]

PSS + Vinegar

Just kidding, that's not a webapp framework, but if I wrote one, that's what I'd call it.

.NET Framework isn't a web framework. ASP.NET is the web framework that runs on .NET. Even then ASP.NET has two distinctly different options. ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET Webforms.

...and ASP.NET Web Pages

I think Zend Framework should be on that list. That's what I use

[benjamind]

Agreed. Very useful for PHP development.

[superfamicom]

On Ruby, Rails.

On PHP, Slim Framework http://www.slimframework.com/

[dkhenry]

Scala and Play. But really they are just a way to do some simple pages and provide a REST API

[ibdknox]

Noir! www.webnoir.org

I may be biased, though, since I wrote it :)

[jrussbowman]

Other: Python Tornado

[EvanK]

Zend Framework (1.x), and Symfony2

[michaelcampbell]

No Flex? (Does anyone use Flex?)

[sjs382]

GluePHP/PropelORM/Savant3

[tzury]

you should add tornado

[rplnt]

Isn't tornado something different?

[pyramid]

Pyramid

[samarudge]

Tornado (web.py)

[Wizzard8]

Vaadin + Spring

[bfrog]

erlang with cowboy and riak

[TrentBrown]

Spring MVC
