Orange Dating: Developing Modern Java Web Applications

Abstract

Developing a Java web application can be considered too complex for most modern developers, mainly because Java has a reputation of being difficult and requiring lots of coding. However, there are modern tools and frameworks that are designed to facilitate the development of web applications in Java. These frameworks are focused on reducing the amount of code needed to make the basic functionality of an application. One of the frameworks used in this project is Spring. This framework provides a MVC architecture designed to facilitate the creation of a modern Java web application with a minimal configuration and code. This document describes an online dating system that was developed in a short time, using Spring framework and Semantic UI to achieve the goal of developing a whole system in a limited amount of time. The online dating system suggests friends based on answers to a questionnaire after the registration. The goal of the system is to make accurate suggestions to a user that is interested in identifying an ideal partner for a date. Key Terms – Java, Online Dating, Spring Framework, Web Application.
