My brain hurts.. there's just so much. That GWT-Material library looks awesome but it appears to focus on mobile apps and tablets.
What I am currently writing at is a administration tool for, let's say store owners that will be able to maintain multiple stores and different offers. It's nothing too complex I guess but I intent to create a desktop-like app. What I've seen so far from Smart GWT or Sencha would indeed provide everything I need. I've been focusing a lot on server side things the last few months implementing the database, learning first Hibernate then jOOQ and all the Spring and Spring Security stuff etc. Now I am finally at the point where I could start to create a UI mock-up but first I have to find yet another library ^^ Why didn't I study economics like my father told me :P On Sunday, 17 January 2016 02:47:24 UTC+1, Alain wrote: > > We have an old unmaintained wrapper for Qooxdoo but we dropped it to go > with Ext JS. > Maybe you can write a wrapper.
