i was wondering if there are any good html5 generation tools for Java, similar to the Jakarta ECS project, which has long been retired. I see there are questions regarding programmatic html generation through java, but most of the answers refer to outdated tools that don´t fully support html5.

I refer to this question in particular: A good HTML object model in Java?

    Yes, there’s one: Jsoup.

    jsoup implements the WHATWG HTML5 specification, and parses HTML to
    the same DOM as modern browsers do.

    • scrape and parse HTML from a URL, file, or string
    • find and extract data, using DOM traversal or CSS selectors
    • manipulate the HTML elements, attributes, and text
    • clean user-submitted content against a safe white-list, to prevent XSS attacks
    • output tidy HTML

    Example:
    (Building some html)

    Document doc = Document.createShell("");

Element headline = doc.body().appendElement("h1").text("thats a headline");
Element pTag = doc.body().appendElement("p").text("some text ...");
Element span = pTag.prependElement("span").text("That's");

System.out.println(doc);

    Output:

    <html>
 <head></head>
 <body>
  <h1>thats a headline</h1>
  <p><span>That's</span>some text ...</p>
 </body>
</html>
