- JSP files are JavaServer Pages. See the related Wikipedia article.
- FTL files are typically FreeMarker Templates. See the related Wikipedia article and the FreeMarker website.
Both are indeed templates that are processed by the respective technology to generate textual contents, often HTML. However, there are several important differences between both technologies.
