The MVC 1.0 specification has a turbulent history. Originally started by Oracle due to the high demand for an action-based Web framework in Java EE it was transferred to the community in early 2017. Since then the community is working to finish what Oracle began. Although MVC is not officially part of the Java EE umbrella specification, its goal is to provide very strong integration with Java EE which makes it a very interesting framework for many developers.
This talk will tell the story of MVC and show the current status of the specification. You will learn about what MVC offers for developers and how a community JSR is working in practice. Short demos will show you how easy it is to write action-based web application using MVC and how it integrates with other specifications of the Java EE platform. And of course you will also lean what you can do to help move the community JSR forward.
