I was checking out Spring recently. The hello-world sample turned me off at once [1]. It's so much more clunky than something equivalent in Python/Go/what have you.

While I agree with you that Spring is clunky, if you're making a simple application I don't think anyone will recommend Spring.

Where Spring shines is enterprise. When you have 600k concurrent users it's just something I can trust. Other solutions can work too, but we value the stability.
