// Implementing wcmUse (deprecated now use WCMUsePojo) is different from Sling Models. You can use both from HTL (formerly known as sightly) (not together), but according to [1] you don't need to have WcmUse and the activate() method at all. I've found [2] which covers the proper usage of wcmUse pojos with Sightly.

    Also WcmUse is bound to your component, while your sling-model can be reuse across your application.

    When working with WCMUse - you need to use WCmUsePojo now.

    As Feike says - this is the Java part of your component where you can define a bean you were you can populate values and display the values in the front end component. See:
