help OpenXava FAQ
What is OpenXava used to build?
OpenXava is a Java low-code framework for enterprise business applications. Developers describe domain entities with Java and JPA annotations, and the framework generates much of the data-management interface.
Does OpenXava use JPA?
Yes, JPA entity classes are central to its application model. The framework uses those entities and their relationships to create forms, lists, validation, and navigation for business data.
Can OpenXava generate a web interface without writing every screen by hand?
That is one of its main purposes: standard CRUD screens and business views can be generated from the application model. Developers can then customize controllers, views, validation, and behavior where the generated interface is not enough.
Is OpenXava a JavaScript front-end framework?
No, it is primarily a Java enterprise application framework that produces web interfaces and uses browser-side technologies such as AJAX. It is closer to a business-application platform than to a component library such as Riot.js.
