You're comparing apples and oranges here! Ask yourself:
- why should you use jQuery over PHP? - why should you use Dojo over Ruby on Rails? - why should you use YUI over Django? - why should you use Ext JS over JSP? The main differences between GWT and any of the above JS toolkits/frameworks/libraries are: - you write Java, then compile to JavaScript - GWT provides communication "protocols" with the server (provided you use a Java backend): GWT-RPC and RequestFactory - because you write Java, you can share some code between both client-side (GWT) and server-side (servlets/GWT-RPC/RequestFactory/etc.) code (note that this would be true, for instance, of JavaScript code if you were running a JavaScript backend such as Node.js) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
