As a GWT user also using TS when necessary: refactoring: WWD in eclipse for TS, vs VScode, no noticeable difference ? essentially nothing useful in either ? Typing - all must be done manually, syntax is back to front: name then type.
Why did Google drop GWT for it to be superceded by this? About the same time they were trying to launch Dart but that went nowhere afaik Yahoo Mail: Search, Organize, Conquer On Mon, Dec 8, 2025 at 11:47 PM, Craig Mitchell<[email protected]> wrote: I'm not sure I understand the question. I've used TS in one project, and GWT in another. Never in the same project. As far as static typing goes, Java (GWT) wins hands down, as it is a native to the language.

Basic question is: does anyone else do this (I assume yes) and how do they compare?

I'm really not sure why Typescript is relevant - if I were coding front-end in JS or TS, then yes I'd think about which syntax and features (type checking etc) were better. But in GWT I'm coding in Java. I don't really care what the compiles down to as long as it works. OK, when debugging I do see the JS output, but I'm never mod'ing that directly. On occasion, to use a lib, I'll quickly craft some JSNI bindings for the methods I need. But that's as close as I go to the JS layer. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GWT Users" group.
