About Javalin

You never extend classes and you rarely implement interfaces. Javalin is just a few thousand lines of code on top of Jetty, and its performance is equivalent to raw Jetty code. Due to its size, it's very easy to reason about the source code. Other Java and Kotlin web frameworks usually offer one version for each language. Javalin is being made with inter-operability in mind, apps are built the same way in both Java and Kotlin. Javalin runs on top of Jetty, one of the most used and stable web servers on the JVM. You can configure the Jetty server fully, including SSL and HTTP3 and everything else that Jetty offers. Many lightweight Java and Kotlin web frameworks don't support OpenAPI, but Javalin does.

    "Java friendly"

    Posted 2025-11-04

    Pros: Good for java developer who want to create there own project but do not want to integrate spring boot. It is fast and modern which is extremely fast.

    Cons: It may require some good knowledge of java before using it. you would doing many manual configurations most of the time but atleast not in 'XML'.

    Overall: Overall it is very fast in speed compare to 'FASTAPI' because it is in java.
    I can proudly say that people who want to create a 'APIS' in java but do not want to be a part of 'SPRING' than this is for them.
