guide to getting started with Angular. You'll learn how to develop a bare-bones application, test it, and
deploy it. Then you'll move on to adding Bootstrap, Angular Material, continuous integration, and authentication.
Spring Boot is a popular framework for building REST APIs. You'll learn how to integrate Angular with Spring Boot and use security best practices like HTTPS and a content security policy.

From the Struts download page:
Log4J Users Please Note - A packaging error has been
uncovered that caused the copy of commons-logging.jar included
in the Struts 1.1 Beta 2 release to be built incorrectly. If you are using
Log4J for your logging needs, you will need to download the Commons Logging
1.0.1 release (convenient links are provided in the
logging directory) and replace your copy of
commons-logging.jar with the one found in the 1.0.1 release.
is released! Your 1.0.x application should work just fine with this latest release - if they don't, post a question to the Struts User List. One reason to upgrade (in my opinion) is that my favorite features, Validator and Tiles, are now part of the core package. And they are now easily configured as "plug-ins" in your struts-config.xml file. Here is how I configure them in my application:
<!-- ========== Plug Ins Configuration ================================== -->
<!-- Validator Plug-In Configuration -->
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property property="pathnames" value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/>
</plug-in>
<!-- Tiles Plug-In Configuration -->
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesPlugin">
<set-property property="definitions-config" value="/WEB-INF/tiles-config.xml" />
<set-property property="definitions-debug" value="0" />
<set-property property="definitions-parser-details" value="1" />
<set-property property="definitions-parser-validate"
value="true" />
</plug-in>
There is also DynaBeans which make it easy to configure a FormBean in your struts-config.xml file without creating a concrete .java file. Here's an example:
<form-bean name="messageForm" type="org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm">
<form-property name="toName" type="java.lang.String"/>
<form-property name="toEmail" type="java.lang.String"/>
<form-property name="subject" type="java.lang.String"/>
<form-property name="content" type="java.lang.String"/>
</form-bean>
