I should have added that JSP (Java Server Pages) also aren't in vogue anymore. These days, a typical web application will have the browser-/client-side written in HTML/CCS/Javascript (or a Javascript-based framework that uses those) and a web server component (e.g. written in Java or whatever is preferred) that exposes an HTTP-based API for the data the front-end reads or wants to write.
