Overview

This project is a proof-of-concept showcasing a functional-oriented approach in Java, inspired by popular libraries like ExpressJS. It provides features for handling HTTP requests, routing, cookies, form data, and middleware functionalities.

Features

Routing - Dynamically attach request handlers to instance methods using DynExpress annotation.
Direct Integration - Add routes and middlewares directly to the Express object for handling requests.
Router Support - Use ExpressRouter to create routes separately and add them later to the Express object.
URL Parameters - Create dynamic URLs with variable parts using the : operator.
Query Parameters - Access query parameters in requests with req.getQuery(NAME).
Cookies - Manage cookies with req.getCookie(NAME) and res.setCookie(NAME, VALUE).
Form Data - Retrieve form data values with req.getFormQuery(NAME).
HTTP Classes - Utilize classes like Express and Response Object for HTTP server functions.

Summary

This Java project, inspired by functional programming principles and libraries like ExpressJS, offers a lightweight framework for handling HTTP requests, routing, cookies, form data, and middleware tasks. While no longer actively maintained, it serves as a testament to alternative approaches in Java development outside traditional frameworks and libraries.
