A web application uses a deployment descriptor to initialize resources like servlets and taglibs. The deployment descriptor is formatted as a XML document and named "web.xml".
Likewise, the framework uses a configuration file to initialize its own resources. These resources include
- Interceptors that can preprocess and postprocess a request
- Action classes that can call business logic and data access code
- Results that can prepare views, like JavaServer Pages and FreeMarker templates
