Tapestry 101

  • Covers: Tapestry 4 (Spring/Hibernate/Hivemind/Tacos(ajax)
  • Publisher: SourceBeat
  • Published: 2006
  • Authors: Warner Onstine

Tapestry is an open-source web application framework written in Java. This framework is different from "standard" MVC frameworks (like Struts or WebWork) in that it is more of a component-oriented framework. A component-oriented framework (like JavaServer Faces) allows you to create re-usable components that you can then re-use on other projects with the ability to re-configure these components to suit a specific purpose.

Tapestry 101 will introduce readers to this framework that is growing in popularity more and more. The focus of this book is to guide you through designing and implementing your application and providing information that you can improve on it with your own custom components.

Howard Lewis Ship (creator of Tapestry) provides the Foreword to the book and adds:

"Tapestry 101's focus is about getting things done, from a user's perspective not a Tapestry developer's. It covers the issues you'll face building real applications."
