Never used a framework and never will. I know how to code. I do my own sites and don't use others or have others do my work for me.

Haha...I assume you're kidding, right? Are you coding in binary? Because if not, someone else has "done your work for you" :)

AppJet. Jaxer was a bit buggy when I used it over the summer.

I just inherited a massive enterprise application; you know run a brick and mortar company on it. It's not a one-off; a number of companies use it. The stack is

Jboss; Spring; Hibernate; Struts; XML gluing it together; Javascript: prototype, JQuery and others; Flex and granite; Vestiges of every Java framework fad of the last 10 years. Maybe I exaggerate, maybe not.

It is way over-engineered. Several times as much code as a Django, Pylons, or Ruby solution. I dont recommend going this path at all, even if you are an enterprise.
