Was the Java Framework Wicket named as such given its similarities in speed and satisfaction to the 5-day version of the sport cricket which also uses wickets?
Probably.
Are you aware of any RAD tools that are current for use with wicket?
(i.e. scaffold generators, crud forms).
I’ve seen the outdated and seemingly forgotten WicketRad, Apache Isis, etc.
I asked almost the same question about half a year ago. The results still seem valid to me:
I haven’t tried Apache Isis as it didn’t come up in my research at that point. So I started a new pet-project developing CRUD components for wicket (Wicket-CRUDr) but since my time is very limited this is still ongoing.
To wrap this up: no, at this time there is no current, ready to use RAD tool for Wicket that I’m aware of.
