Andras Piros commented on OOZIE-2683:
-------------------------------------

Since GWT has been abandoned by Google several years ago ({{2.8.0-SNAPSHOT}} 
since like 2015), and no active development seems to be in place by others, I'd 
definitely advise not to use that.

Other frameworks that compile to Javascript could be of interest:
* Angular 2 (TypeScript or the latest Javascript / ECMAScript version can be 
used as development language, rich toolset)
* React.js
* Backbone.js

> Rewrite the Oozie Web UI

> We're currently relying on a version of ExtJS that's so old, it's not linked 
> on their official website, and is often temporarily deleted.  Looks like it's 
> now been deleted for good (OOZIE-2622).  It also has a GPL license, so we 
> can't include it with Oozie, and users are forced to go and download it 
> themselves.  And finally, it's a really outdated UI that's not very good.
> We should invest in a new Web UI that's more modern and compatibly licensed.
