In my experience it can be used for projects of any size. My current client is developing a large trading application with it, and I've developed small personal projects with it too. > > For any type of project is GWT good enough to be used as a standalone > framework or is it that it needs to be used along with other similar > technologies like SmartGWT and GWT Ext ? As Paul mentioned this is two questions: Can GWT be used as a standalone framework? Yes of course - but at some point you may need to communicate with other systems, or a database etc. at which point you may need other things to help you out. On the large scale project I've been working on, we have some EMS stuff and some web services, but no Spring or Hibernate. Does it need to be used with SmartGWT or GWT Ext? No - these do give you some nice out of the box widgets and features, but with 1.5 (not got round to upgrading) these kill download times and compile times. We also found they didn't give us much in terms of what we really wanted. Sure they were nice to look at, but when the business says they don't like the look - you have to re-skin everything anyway.
