Hi all, I don't agree with Arthur. You save a lot of time using one of these libraries. In both cases you don't have to care about CSS and you have much more widgets than "vanilla" GWT. On the other side, both libraries are not as mature as GWT, so you will find isolated issues. Obviously, if you want a fully customized design, maybe "vanilla" GWT is better.
I have tested both libraries and choose to use Ext GWT. I use it since April and it makes me saving a lot of time. Here is the result of my comparison : Ext GWT (the ExtJS GWT library) : ++ this is a fully native GWT library (it is not wrapping JS code and therefore fully benefits from GWT compiler optimizations and debugging features) + the library is supported by ExtJS company, which is already a popular and recognized javascript framework + MVC layer - less features for now - if you want to distribute your product and don't want to do it under GPL license you will have to buy a commercial license (289$ for one developer) GWT-Ext : + more features (especially experimental Yahoo UI Charts integration) - This is a library wrapping ExtJS (Javascript code). Therefore debugging is limited - no support for ExtJS > 2.0.2 - no GWT RPC integration (except if you buy the commercial extension GWT-Ext Plus) Regards Nicolas On 6 nov, 14:41, "Arthur Kalmenson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This is a common theme, and as I said above, I highly recommend > keeping far away from ext gwt or gwt ext.

I find it really difficult to get to this simple information. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
