Spring Web Flow is an exciting open-source framework for developing Java web applications. The framework improves productivity by addressing three major pain-points facing web application developers: user interface navigation control, state management, and modularity.
The Definitive Guide to Spring Web Flow covers Spring Web Flow in detail by explaining its motivation and feature set, as well as providing practical guidance for using the framework to develop web applications successfully in a number of environments.
Erwin Vervaet is the originator of the Spring Web Flow project and currently co-leads its development. He works as a senior software engineer in Leuven, Belgium.
