OpenXava 8.0 released

Version 8 represents a new era for OpenXava. A new OpenXava inside and out, while remaining true to its essence.

OpenXava is now based on Spring Boot (the latest version), supports Jakarta EE (the latest version), and has a modern look and feel worthy of 2026. In addition, we have removed all technological remnants of the past.

But it is still OpenXava. Your code will continue to work, with the same entities, the same actions, the same calculators. The approach of writing only simple Java classes to get an application is still there, intact. Only now everything is modern, as modern as imaginable.

All this, plus more than 60 new features.

Watch the video where we show you the new OpenXava 8:
