I needed a personal Web site where I could host my credentials, one I can use as sort of a promo to highlight my GWT and App Engine experience and showcase my work because I am currently looking for development work. So using App Engine and GWT I put together http://jefftschwartz.appspot.com/. On the back-end I used App Engine's Java Mail API for sending inquiries to my Google email account and a GWT-RPC servlet to handle the requests. All the markup was done right in the GWT application's hosting page using plain HTML & I used RootPanel.get and DOM.getElementById and various widget wrapper methods to tie the scripting to user events on the page elements.
What impressed me the most was that it only took me a few hours total development time from concept to implementation. The combination of being able to create an App Engine application ID on demand and benefit from GWT's productivity is an awesome combination. Many thanks to the App Engine & GWT teams for some pretty powerful juvu. -- *Jeff Schwartz* http://jefftschwartz.appspot.com/ follow me on twitter: @jefftschwartz -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
