Overview of developing portlets using the Struts 2 framework. Struts 2 allows a developer to develop a stand along web application and then turn that web application into a portlet with minor modifications. In fact, the standalone web application and the portlet can both be used simultaneously using the same deployed *.war file. This method of developing portlets makes it easy for java developers who either don't have any portal experience and/or who don't have a portal environment to develop in to easily utilize their java skills to build portlets.
