The Apache Wicket PMC is proud to announce Apache Wicket 7.3.0!
Apache Wicket is an open source Java component oriented web application framework that powers thousands of web applications and web sites for governments, stores, universities, cities, banks, email providers, and more. You can find more about Apache Wicket at https://wicket.apache.org
This release marks another minor release of Wicket 7. We use semantic versioning for the development of Wicket, and as such no API breaks are present breaks are present in this release compared to 7.0.0.
New and noteworthy
Wicket Metrics added
A new experimental module for integrating with DropWizard’s Metrics project was created. Metrics provides a powerful toolkit of ways to measure the behavior of critical components in your production environment. Using the Metrics integration requires the use of AspectJ (which is licensed under the Eclipse Public License 1.0)
You can read more about using the Metrics integration in our user guide’s monitoring chapter.
jQuery upgrade
Wicket ships standard with it’s own jQuery. With this release jQuery was upgraded to 1.12.3/2.2.3.
Using this release
With Apache Maven update your dependency to (and don’t forget to update any other dependencies on Wicket projects to the same version):
Or download and build the distribution yourself, or use our convenience binary package

Upgrading from earlier versions
If you upgrade from 7.y.z this release is a drop in replacement. If you come from a version prior to 7.0.0, please read our Wicket 7 migration guide found at
