Enhancing Java Web Development Skills: @WebServlet Annotation, JSP, Servlet vs. JSP, and Exception Handling

Hey Dev.to community! Today, I deepened my understanding of Java web development by exploring several key topics:

@WebServlet Annotation: Explored the usage of @WebServlet annotation in Java Servlets, understanding its role in simplifying servlet configuration and mapping in web applications.
The Role of JSP: Discussed the importance of JSP (JavaServer Pages) in web development, understanding how JSP enables the creation of dynamic web pages with embedded Java code.
Servlet vs. JSP: Compared and contrasted Servlets and JSP, exploring their strengths, weaknesses, and typical use cases in building web applications.
Exception Handling in JSP: Explored exception handling strategies in JSP, learning how to effectively handle errors and exceptions in JSP pages.
Overall, my exploration of these topics has enriched my Java web development skills and provided me with valuable insights into building dynamic and interactive web applications. Excited to incorporate these learnings into my projects! #Java #Servlet #JSP #LearningJourney
