One of the most frequently asked questions about Tapestry is: 'What sites are actually running on Tapestry?'

This is a tricky question to answer; unlike a for-pay company that sells software licenses, we have only a vague idea of our full user base. Further, as an Apache product, we don't even have a clear idea of the number of software downloads (there are so many independent mirrors).

This page is an attempt to answer those questions; Tapestry users are encouraged to update this page. List the details about your project ... and hopefully dive a little deeper on the SuccessStories page.

It is recommended to add new sites to the top of the list then they are easy to find!

SwifTec Canada

http://www.swiftec.ca

The site provides an easy way for Canadians to get their iPhones, iPods and Macs repaired. The site is built with Tapestry 5.3, Tapestry-jQuery, Spring and Hibernate and runs on Linux and MySQL. I have also built several other internal, education oriented apps in Tapestry 5. I blog at http://blog.jeshurun.ca

mountainbikers-paradise.com

This website (containing mountainbike tracks in Austria) was originally a php-powered site. Because the whole preprocessing was already Java code we decided to port the site to the new Tapestry5. The whole tapestry-code was written in Groovy - this makes the tapestry development even better. http://www.mountainbikers-paradise.com

Digital Art Gallery

http://digital-art-gallery.com

The website contains pictures and photos of professional digital artists. I scan homepages of digital artists all over the world for interesting artworks and publish the best ones on the site. Also, I developed web applications with HTML5 features support – Slideshow Player and Desktop Wallpaper Tool that I think could be useful to you. It is build upon Tapestry 5, Hibernate and PostgreSQL.

I also developed many other projects with Tapestry 5 that you can find on my homepage http://foror.ru

http://www.seesaw.com/

SeeSaw is a Video On Demand site aimed at the UK market. It is browsable from outside the UK but you can't watch the video (sad).

The site is running Tapestry 5 and hopefully will provide a good reference for a large scale site. The site is still in beta - but should be open to the general public shortly.

Pró Nutricionista

http://www.pronutricionista.com.br

Pró Nutricionista is a website targeted at Brazilian nutritionists. They can have build their website, writing pages using the FCKeditor, and customizing colors, fonts and images. Pró Nutricionista also provides a discussion forum and social bookmarking (a Delicious clone). It is built on Tapestry 5, Hibernate, Spring and several open-source packages of the Ars Machina Project. It uses URL rewriting a lot: http://www.cristilenesalomao.com.br is a website built on Pró Nutricionista. Requests to this specific URL are first rewritten to http://cristilenesalomao.pronutricionista.com.br then to http://pronutricionista.com.br/texto/visualizar/cristilenesalomao, the URL Tapestry ultimately handles.

Online seminar registration app at the Macau Productivity and Technology Transfer Center

It is a very simple application that consists of just a couple of pages, but considering the input validation and i18n (English and Chinese) required, I wouldn't consider using anything other than Tapestry. In addition, it uses the Apache Digester and a custom Tapestry Engine class to load the list of seminars in an external XML file.

The app has been online for several months and has been rock solid.

Servprise International, Inc.

Tapestry 4.0 and Cayenne 1.2 are the key frameworks behind the Servprise Web site. We've used Tapestry 3 for internal projects in the past, but this app marks our first public use of Tapestry. Tapestry 4 helped us get the Web site out the door quickly and makes ongoing modifications easy to manage. Given that we enjoy an international market, we will be making use of Tapestry's easy-to-use i18n support in the near future.

Servprise International makes products to service the enterprise IT market. The aforementioned Web site handles general business Web site tasks and dual functions as an e-commerce site. The use of Hivemind services allowed us to independently write and test shipping and payment provider integration modules that we were able to easily wire into the Web app. In summary, the combo of Hivemind and Tapestry 4.0 was an all around win for us.

Titan Magazines

We're a publishing business based in the UK. We produce a number of titles that are licensed from third-party licensors and as such we have strict procedures on what can be placed on our website. To this end, we levered Tapestry's HTML template approach to ensure that the pages that we send for licensor approval will exactly match what is on the web. The component-based architecture also allowed much code re-use and consequently a swift development time.

Brother Internacional de Mexico

http://www.brother.com.mx

Site for Brother Internacional de Mexico

OpenCMS 5 + Tapestry 3.0.3 + Hibernate 2. Developed by LegoSoft.

ekosystems.com

Though not viewable to the public in general, tapestry is being used in a large hospital medical records enterprise system. The intuitive design and reusable(not a buzzword, components really are re-usable) nature of tapestry components has made deploying and fixing bugs in our product easier than anything we have done thus far.

The combination of tapestry & hivemind has made the framework the ideal choice for us. Flexible configuration via hivemind (or Spring if you prefer) has made testing and quality of code that much better.

Ping Identity - PingFederate 3.0

We released PingFederate 3.0 which was built entirely on top of Tapestry. We used Tapestry to build the Admin Interface to PingFederate. PingFederate is an enterprise-grade identity federation (SAML) server for organizations that require a flexible and cost-effective way to integrate, manage, and secure disparate users and applications across internal and external security domains. It provides authentication, attribute, and authorization portability across autonomous security domains. It features a GUI administration tool, built-in key management, SSL and signing certificates, built-in JDBC and LDAPv3 adaptors for advanced attribute management, setup wizards, online help, a user manual, an SDK, and a demo.

It is a commercial product, but the first 100,000 transactions are free.

Church and People

http://www.churchandpeople.com

A web site that provides churches with community building and administration tools. It includes online event registration, credit card processing, resource management, membership directories, private forums, an event calendar, e-mail tools, and more. The Church and People application works with a church's existing web site and accounting package, rather than trying to replace them.

The application is built 100% on top of Tapestry with Hibernate, JasperReports, and MySQL. Please note that the public marketing web site is built with a content management system (not Tapestry based). If any Tapestry users or potential users want to try out the application rather than just look at the screenshots, send me an e-mail at danoc@churchandpeople.com and I'll create a trial account for you.

Instantpict

http://www.instantpict.com

A photographer's best friend. For photographers who wish to publish their pictures and sell them online, we have created this picture management, web page creation and order management web site. A free account can be opened to test features. Paid subscribers get much more space, and assistance if need be.

The application is built on Tapestry with the help of Spring, Hibernate, MySQL as the database, JAI for image manipulation. The layered approach has allowed us to divide the application at one point into two different applications (front and back office) and to create a child application in less than a week, Pictotron. The upload of images is handled by http, and we've made a REST api and a java client application to interact with the application. It runs on Tapestry 3, so friendly urls had to be made by hand, using url-rewrite. Probably the easiest application to maintain and build upon I've had in many years, certainly thanks to Tapestry. And internationalisation has been a pleasure (site in French and English).

Pictotron

http://www.pictotron.com

For family and friends pictures. A flickr-like application made in just a week from Instantpict code base.
