How popular is Spring vs other Java Web Frameworks (Struts, Tapestry, JSF, GWT, ...) ?

I found a link on the subject :

software.../webframeworks

...but I'm am looking for further resources. Thanks in advance for your posts !

Why do people keep comparing Spring with web frameworks?! Spring is much more then only a web MVC framework...

Its possible its merely a terminology issue.  Perhaps his intent would have been  clearer if he had said:

I believe this website is bogus - there's no proof behind the rankings.

I'm with Matt. I reported the post to the moderators. Google quot;tom.mcleeshquot; and you'll see many newsgroup postings from today with the same site.

Definitely spring is the most complete, easy to use and demanded refactoring tool that I have ever seen.
Spring web relly on the standard web 2.0 but there are other tool that have more popularity like struts or myfaces

It's very difficult to know how many people are using Spring MVC versus other web frameworks because many of us use Spring in conjunction with one or more web frameworks other than Spring MVC.  Anecdotally, I'd say that it seems that of the developers and projects I am aware of that use the Spring framework, more of them do not use Spring MVC than do use Spring MVC.  In other words, the majority of Spring developers and projects I am familiar with use a web framework other than Spring MVC with Spring-powered back-ends.  Reasons for this include comfort and skill level associated with other web frameworks and desirability of features peculiar to a web framework (especially Flex/Flash-based and RCP-based solutions).  I know that Spring MVC has even added significant functionality since many of us first looked at it, but we have not had a driving reason to look at it again because we're happy with the web frameworks we're using.  I see it as an advantage of the overall Spring framework that there is so much allowance for the mixing and matching of various Spring components.
