Java MVC Tutorials

Over the next few weeks, I will post several tutorials investigating and demonstrating transforming the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE, previously J2EE), into an MVC platform.

I will do this without the use of currently available (and rather unpleasant) MVC frameworks--like Struts, Spring, and JavaServer Faces--and with very little code. I will also demonstrate the need for such an organization to a java project, and why Java EE out of the box (unless using an additional framework) does not provide a ready MVC organization. If this isn't enough, I will also show how to incorporate several common web best practices into this MVC structure using standard technologies in the Java EE APIs. Stay tuned!
