FWIW A couple of years ago we decided to move away from GWT and move to react+mobx+typescript under the assumption we could produce apps faster. After several months in that world, we came back to the GWT world. Mostly this was due to productivity.
Except for some legacy applications we don't use classes from the GWT runtime and instead use react and arez (a mobx alternative) - which is much more productive. We still have somewhat slow refresh times for large apps but our prototyping with J2CL seemed to indicate even that would go away and in fact, be faster than the equivalent in JS land (!). JS still has the advantage of a larger set of libraries and framework-specific speed Improvements (i.e. hot reloading in react) we certainly have no interest in going back ;) On Tue, Apr 28, 2020 at 10:33 AM Thomas <[email protected]> wrote: > > Thanks Howard. > > Definitely not planning a deep integration... > > Interesting insight about GWT vs JS in terms of productivity.
