I usually dislike boilerplate, so I use Javalin. (used to use Spark Java).

Another kind I usually do is a desktop app. I have made some libraries (and uploaded to Maven) as well.

Maybe I should learn boilerplate-esque, like Spring Boot, Django, Nest.js... (Still, I am OK with Nuxt, Vue CLI, but not Quasar)

Yes, and I never really tried JavaFX.

But I find Electron to be way more convenient. That's why I wrote this. JavaFX WebView is not fast.
