Haven't checked the framework itself, I'd just like to kindly note that phrases like "The main motivation behind Defne is ease of use. Defne  allows developers to concentrate on their business logic while it provides all other application requirements such as transaction and security." - are quite avoidable I think. These are empty meaningless sentences, and I'll feel like you're wasting my time.

All the information we get from your introduction is that Defne is "service-oriented" - and I can hardly imagine what it means in case of web frameworks. You should tell at least whether its more like GWT, Vaadin, Wicket, JSF ...
