GWT apps are written in plain Java. The front-end portion gets compiled by the GWT compiler from Java to JavaScript & HTML. Since the backend remains plain Java, it can access anything a native Java application can access - i.e. anything. So, the backend portion has no limitations and is just plain Java. The backend and frontend can agree on what will be accessible / displayed to the frontend user.
