The Play Framework is an open-source web application framework that follows the model–view–controller (MVC) architectural pattern. It is written in Scala and usable from other programming languages that are compiled to JVM bytecode, such as Java. Play is designed to optimize developer productivity by providing a lightweight, stateless, web-friendly architecture that uses Akka and Akka Streams to ensure predictable and minimal resource consumption (CPU, memory, threads) for highly scalable applications. It is particularly well-suited for building modern web applications and REST services.
