Does not yet exist yet to my knowledge.

Very lightweight.

Abstract Application Annotations

Requires only a builder on the development platform.
Develop an application by writing annotated interfaces.
Declarative configuration using (xml?).

@PackagingImpl
interface IApplication
{
   @PlatformImpl
   void launch(String[] args);
}

@PackagingImpl
interface IPlugin
{
   @Uninstall
   void install();

   @AsService
   void start();

   @Site
   void update();
}

@Persistance
@Typed
interface IData
{
   void create();
   void retrieve();
   void update();
   void remove();

}
