What I Used for Developing this Website
Here’s a list of the components powering this website:
- Struts Tiles.
- Url Rewrite Filter.
- Pebble.
- JSP with JSTL.
For development, I used the Eclipse IDE, as I usually do for Java projects. To put it all together into a nice WAR file, I used an Ant build file that merges the above components into a single webapp and then adds my own JSPs, customizations and configuration to that same webapp.
By the way, my servlet container is Tomcat 4.1.29 running on a shared server host. It’s actually the Light Edition of it, but fortunately that doesn’t seem to be causing any trouble.
