At the beginning of a project you usually know what you want to do. So if you want native clients for different platforms then you will start with some sort of REST/JSON or protobuff/thrift/... backend. > Isn't it a potential option for nearly any web application today to be > complemented by a mobile version some day? > Sure but "mobile version" does not automatically mean native client for each mobile platform. If your web app works in a mobile web browser then you not necessarily need a native app. Often a mobile friendly web app is good enough. Are there any tutorials out there for building web apps based on GWT with > mobile versions for Android/iOS? > At GWT.create in early 2015 there will be a talk about the hybrid apps from Google which have a client for web but also native clients for iOS / Android. These hybrid apps share about 70% of the code base between these platforms. -- J. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
