What is Sling Models?

Sling Models are a powerful mechanism within the Apache Sling web framework for mapping data from the Sling resource tree (JCR repository) to Java objects. They provide a simplified and annotation-driven approach to accessing and manipulating content. Sling Models are commonly used in Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) development to represent content components, allowing developers to define Java interfaces or classes that automatically populate their fields with data from JCR nodes. This promotes cleaner code, improves testability, and simplifies content access compared to traditional JCR API usage.
