public class JsonForm extends HttpServlet {

    @Override
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
    throws ServletException, IOException {



    }

}


//grid

Ext.onReady(function(){
    Ext.define('Employee',{
        extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
        proxy: {
            type: 'ajax',
            reader: 'json'
        },
        fields: [{
            name: 'FirstName',
            type: 'string'

    var gridStore = Ext.create('Ext.data.XmlStore', {
      model: 'Employee',
      autoLoad: true,
      proxy: {
          type: 'ajax',
          url: '',

       }
   });


    grid = Ext.create('Ext.grid.Panel', { 
      store: gridStore,
      columnLines: true,
      frame: true,
      columns: [

I believe dataIndex value you have is not correct, you should use field's property name as the value for dataIndex.

dataIndex:'name' instead of what you have..

Take a look at this page from their docs, it might help more
