Guice: Why lightweight dependency injection frameworks are not enough by Victor Uria Valle

Let’s face it — Google Guice isn’t exactly setting the world on fire. In this talk, we’ll take an honest look at why lightweight dependency injection frameworks like Guice are great... if you enjoy frustration and underwhelming performance. We’ll cover all the ways Guice tries its best but falls short in real-world projects, even with basic applications. Expect plenty of salt as we explore why Guice might be better left on the shelf, and why you should probably be looking for something a bit more useful.
