Re: Entire Site in GWT?
Hi Mike, I was considering using Flash to build my site (http:// www.yournextpresent.com), but i'm really glad I chose GWT in the end! I was able to get all the animations I required working using the GWTFX library (http://code.google.com/p/gwt-fx/) and even got google crawling my site using the 'Making GWT crawlable' documentation which has already been linked to. I have a PHP/MySQL backend and have had no problems communicating with GWT via REST. Overall, definitely go for GWT! -RPB On Nov 8, 4:49 pm, mike.cann mike.c...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Guys, First post on this list. I have searched for this question before posting.

Re: Entire Site in GWT?
Hi Mike, my two cents. We implemented a product which is entire site itself and even allows others ( if they download and install it) to build kind of entire site, limited somehow though. Ref. http://www.projectkaiser.com:8080/pk. This is a project management and issue tracking solution which can describe itself. In connection to GWT isn't web-crawlable. Well, for this we expose all our pages in static manner. Try to google, e.g., for: Project Kaiser: Manual Installation. Normally you get the following link: http://www.projectkaiser.com:8080/pk/ps?f=22609 which is a print-friendly version of http://www.projectkaiser.com:8080/pk/?fileid=22609 Actually rendering code from client is reused in server.

Re: Entire Site in GWT?
Hi Mike, We built our entire website using GWT (www.xplana.com) and it's been really great. Thanks to GWT, you can develop complex ajax application easily and quickly because everything is done in Java and UiBinder is really helpful to design your screens. Following the MVP pattern is definetely the best way to implement a GWT application (in our case, we used mvp4g, http://code.googlecode.com/p/mvp4g) and thanks to the code splitting feature, your application loads faster.

If your site is big enough to require a dedicated server I recommend Glassfish, but some projects just aren't big enough and shared Java hosting is very difficult to come by.

Re: Entire Site in GWT?
We also decided to build our entire website using GWT (hosted on App Engine). It's early in the development process, but with a good MVP framework and UiBinder it is not that different from building a traditional website but you get a faster, richer and much more interactive experience. Check out the current version: http://hive.arcbees.com/ All the code is open source at: http://code.google.com/p/arcbees-hive/ It's based off many great open-source projects for GWT, including GWTP as our MVP framework: http://gwtplatform.com Cheers, Philippe On Nov 9, 8:01 am, Gal Dolber gal.dol...@gmail.com wrote: Checkouthttp://code.google.com/p/guit-ajax-crawler/for Ajax crawlability On Tue, Nov 9, 2010 at 10:19 AM, Nicolas Antoniazzi nicolas.antonia...@gmail.com wrote: For our project we use Tomcat / Postgresql on server side.

Re: Entire Site in GWT?
Hej Mike, GWT Rocks :D! A lot has changed since 2008. And i mean, A LOT. I know that there is a way now to allow web crawlers to scan your app but I don´t know how, since i´ve never used it so far. By default all of the JS script is loaded at start, but you can use code split to split your JS code where you want. I recommend that you check out the GWT talks from Google I/O 2010 and 2009. Most of the talks aren´t that newbie friendly, but you get an idea of the capabilities GWT has. On Nov 8, 5:49 pm, mike.cann mike.c...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Guys, First post on this list.

Has the GWT isnt web-crawlable issue been solved now? Is the script for every page on your site downloaded at the start or is it downloaded as you click a link (as in a traditional site)? Are there any other barriers to making an entire site in GWT? Cheers, Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Entire Site in GWT?
In my opinion, a full website can be built with GWT (uiBinder is a great helper for this). This is the way that we chose in our company. it is really fantastic to code with gwt and it allows to use so many optimizations for the client side (client bundle, conditional css, ...). Every pages of the website is behind a code split so it does not overload the inital loading of the gwt client side. For Search engine, we implemented this mechanism : http://code.google.com/intl/fr/web/ajaxcrawling/docs/getting-started.html with htmlunit in the backend.,But it is only compatible with google. We are looking for a better solution to handle this problem for all search engine. Nicolas. 2010/11/8 Jambi michael.lukaszc...@googlemail.com Hej Mike, GWT Rocks :D! A lot has changed since 2008.
