Also Tapestry is very lenient in the approaches to problems you can take.
You never feel artificially confined. Another great point is the component
orientation which makes for a much more natural flow of coding compared to
pure MVC. Though on the surface it is also page oriented, you automatically
start to think differently about webapplications, since the pages are more
or less only functional units or "meta-components". I usually start now by
thinking about what functional behaviour I need, create my components and
mixins and assemble the functionality into pages which get shorter with
every iteration. Everything about tapestry feels clean. When you start to do
ugly hacks, you probably got it wrong in design. If you think and read up a
bit more you usually end up with half the code or even less and simple one
at that.

The only drawback of Tapestry 5 is, that you might get spoiled for other
frameworks, since they tend to feel clumsy compared to the elegant approach
Tapestry takes.
