I'm the creator of JHipster, thanks for the link :-)
Yes we do generate CRUD entities, from the database (SQL, Cassandra, MongoDB) to the view layer (AngularJS/Bootstrap). All this with security, caching, monitoring, documentation, tests... So this is very different from Play, Dropwizard or even vanilla Spring Boot (on top of which JHipster is built).
I'm not saying it's better or worse, just that it's a totally different beast: depending on your needs, JHipster can be a huge time-saver.
