I used ExtJS (gxt), at that time I also looked into smartGWT. Both are excellent and by the same author.
But both require you to add another layer data for binding. And commercial version is good for use ;-) But now GWT widgets are as powerful as them. (I needed a data grid with paging that time, so choose it) Also I learned to use jQuery, (before I have no experience with JS), now it seems implementing more things with jQuery with GWt wrapping will be faster than developing whole thing in GWT (It's my humble opinion anyway :) ). So 1) understand what your project really want (lean projects are always better to manage and maintain) 2) choose another library only if something you want is not in gwt itself, and you don't know how to implement it (or you are in urgency ) 3) Or use direct JS (if you know it, I'm a newbie to Jquery but it's power is amazing, NB: JS is not that hard) Arun.K.R On Dec 17, 2:21 pm, mariyan nenchev <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > i have used smart gwt for some projects, and i was not impressed from smart > gwt, but it you decide smart gwt ee its good to use, but it is paid.
