Difference between Java Servlet and JSP

Java Development

Servlet is html in java whereas JSP is java in html. Servlets run faster compared to JSP. … JSP is a webpage scripting language that can generate dynamic content while Servlets are Java programs that are already compiled which also creates dynamic web content. In MVC, jsp acts as a view and servlet acts as a controller.

Servlet example: Hello.java

response.setContentType("text/html");
    PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
    
    writer.println("<html>");
    writer.println("<head>");
    writer.println("<title>This is my .java file to .class file. Sample Application Servlet Page</title>");
    writer.println("</head>");
    writer.println("<body bgcolor=white>");
    
    writer.println("<table border=\"0\">");
    writer.println("<tr>");
    writer.println("<td>");
    writer.println("<img src=\"images/tomcat.gif\">");
    writer.println("</td>");
    writer.println("<td>");
    writer.println("<h1>Sample Application Servlet</h1>");
    writer.println("This is the output of a servlet that is part of");
    writer.println("the Hello, World application.");
    writer.println("</td>");
    writer.println("</tr>");
    writer.println("</table>");

JSP example: hello.jsp

<table border="0">
<tr>
<td align=center>
<img src="images/tomcat.gif">
</td>
<td>
<h1><%= new String("Sample Application JSP Page") %></h1>
This is the output of a JSP page that is part of the Hello, World
application.
</td>
</tr>
