Simplified web programming made easy with new software.
Convention over Configuration is VRaptor's prime focus. The framework uses a pragmatic approach and avoids XML/properties/annotations configuration, which can be repetitive, tedious, and prone to mistakes. Instead, most of the settings are enclosed in Plain Java Objects (POJO), enabling the team to identify the events' status and location.
VRaptor is user-friendly and can solve various problems commonly found in other frameworks like Struts and Webwork. It minimizes configuration and only uses a small set of powerful options that all projects can accommodate. Business logic is written in a simple POJO class that focuses on reuse. Additionally, it is easy to implement data converters, and you don't need to learn a new tag library.
You can use VRaptor with any view you desire as the framework is not locked to JSP, velocity, or free marker. You can even use velocity + sitemesh. Functional testing with VRaptor is fast, efficient, and easy to implement. Overall, VRaptor is unquestionably an excellent framework that you should consider if you're in search of a suitable web MVC and IOC Framework.
