∞ do more, more easily

Jooby is a modular, high-performance web framework for Java and Kotlin. Designed for simplicity and speed, it gives you the freedom to build on your favorite server with a clean, modern API.

🚀 Built for Speed

  • High Performance: Consistently ranks among the fastest Java frameworks in TechEmpower benchmarks.
  • Lightweight Footprint: Low memory usage and fast startup times make it ideal for microservices environments.
  • Choose Your Engine: Built to run on your favorite high-performance servers: Netty, Jetty, or Undertow.

🛠️ Developer Productivity

  • Instant Hot-Reload: Save your code and see changes immediately without restarting the entire JVM.
  • Modular by Design: Only use what you need. Jooby offers over 50 "thin" modules for database access (Hibernate, JDBI, Flyway), security (Pac4j), and more.
  • OpenAPI & Swagger: Automatically generate interactive documentation for your APIs with built-in OpenAPI 3 support.

🧩 Unrivaled Flexibility

  • The Power of Choice: Use the Script API (fluent, lambda-based routes) for simple apps, or the MVC API (annotation-based) for complex enterprise projects.
  • Reactive & Non-Blocking: Full support for modern async patterns, including Kotlin Coroutines, RxJava, Reactor, and CompletableFutures.
  • First-Class Kotlin Support: Native DSLs and features designed specifically to make Kotlin development feel intuitive and type-safe.

Quick Start

Java:

importstaticio.jooby.Jooby.runApp;
publicclassApp {
publicstaticvoidmain(finalString[] args) {
runApp(args, app -> {
app.get("/", ctx -> "Welcome to Jooby!");
});
}
}

Kotlin:

importio.jooby.runAppfunmain(args:Array<String>) {
runApp(args) {
get ("/") {
"Welcome to Jooby!"
}
}
}
