How did the java web applications used to be?

In the exhibit you can see a reconstruction of an ancient java web application, that could be dated ~2000-2010 AD.

  • it sports a JSP, calculating the fizz buzz of the first 100 numbers
  • has a rudimentary rest services made with javax.ws.rs
  • it is compiled for java 8, due to limitation of the asm component
  • has a working web.xml file. this file used to be the descriptor of the application, and basically contain the deployment instructions for the servlet container.

We used to write so much boilerplate back then...
