This is an example project for a blog series that demonstrates how to build a tightly-integrated technology stack that simplifies web-application development.

Technologies:

• Apache Wicket - Web Interface

• JPA/Hibernate - Relational Persistence

Features:

• Dependency injection into Wicket components
• JPA Persistence Unit setup
• Injection of EntityManagerFactory and EntityManager
• Conversational EntityManager which allows for Extended Persistence Units by propagating the conversation
• Various integration classes for Wicket, such as base Entity models and data providers
