The Struts open source framework was created to make it easier for developers to build web applications based on Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages (JSP) technologies. Just like a building must have a solid foundation from which the rest of the structure can grow, web applications should be built with the same principle in mind. The Struts framework provides developers a unified framework from which Internet applications can be based upon. By using Struts as the foundation, developers are able to concentrate on building the business logic for the application.
