What is "wicket"

Apache Wicket is a framework for developing Web applications for Java that came in version 1.0 in June 2005. It is similar to Javaserver Faces or Tapestry, and became a high-level project of Apache in June 2007. According to Wicket developers, Wicket improves other component-based web frameworks at various points:

• Transparent state management
• Wicket pages can be mocked up, previewed, and then revised using WYSIWYG HTML tools.
• Dynamic content processing and manipulation forms in Java code.
• No configuration files using XML.
