✅ What Servlets are
✅ Their role in the request-response cycle
✅ Real-world use cases
✅ Diagrams, code examples & more

    Pretty cool you broke all that down - makes me wanna dig back into Java again and see what I missed.

    Nice rundown! I started with Servlets early on, but moving to frameworks like Spring made me appreciate how much groundwork they laid. Do you think Servlets still have a place in new projects, or are they mainly for legacy systems now?

      Totally agree! Servlets laid the foundation, but frameworks like Spring make development much easier now. They're mostly used in legacy systems today.
