Jersey vs. Restlet #43

Closed confile closed 10 years ago

confile commented 10 years ago

This is a great plugin but I am not sure if I should use Jersey or Restlet?

What is the difference?

Naive answer: it's up to you :-)

Seriously, as you probably already know the plugin supports both of them. I've no experience with Restlet, since I've always used only Jersey (the jaxrs reference implementation). Please note Jersey and Restlet don't simply implement the JAXRS api, but offers features that goes beyond it.

So I think you should consider reading the respective documentations or at least some comparisons like http://compare-tech.blogspot.it/2012/09/comparing-restful-web-services.html and then make a decision weighted on your actual needs.
