Thanks for all the feedback. Didn't know that GWT Material was wraps materializecss. I think polymer is the future. However the more seamless integration of GWT Material with GWT Widgets as well as a more gradual migration might give it a bit of an edge for my use case. Also probably easier

I just don't get this trend with "burying" widgets and UiBinder. Even with Errai I don't see any meaningful replacement for composite UI, i.e. design simple blocks as ... and then reuse them with Though with Polymer it looks like it's possible by defining web component for each logical
