I'd say Sling Models, though I haven't used them myself much so far.
You might want to ask more specific questions if you try them.

Sling models look ideal for what I need.
Is there a sample app/quickstart guide for using models? It always feels like a huge divide between the docs and a blank editor page.


Some object-to-JCR mapping libraries have been created but we don't
recommend using them, see http://markmail.org/message/wmqggzrxwxearmyh
for discussions.

Does this include slice?

Is slice specific to Adobe's AEM, or does it work with sling/oak as well?

I'm not sure if we have more than
http://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/models.html - Justin?

I was only thinking about modules that are in Jackrabbit and Sling
when I said "not recommended".

I personally don't think you need to use Guice on top of what we use
from OSGi (distributed services), like Slice does AFAIK, but that's
just my opinion.
