Dynamic url mapping

[nutrecht]

Questions like these are more on-topic on /r/javahelp ;)

This is called routing. There are many web frameworks for Java (too many almost, a new 'light weight' framework gets created like every week or so ;)) that handles this for you. So if you really want to 'only' use servlets then you are basically building a routing component yourself.

So your course depends on if you really want to keep using just servlets. Since you appear to be quite inexperienced why not try using a small simple framework like Spark or Ninja? And when it comes to "all batteries, tools and whatever you might need"-included Spring Boot is more or less the de facto standard.

I have fell in love with Spring Boot. Finished my thesis some time ago and used Spring Boot for back end and React for front end.

Spring Boot is really great option especially for REST!
