We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed, but the existence of the other library (Wt::Dbo) is not directing our attention away from Wt/JWt. Instead, we hope it will allow more people to quickly build web applications with Wt and increase our user base (and it seems like it is doing this already). > UI's built with Witty need to be Pretty. We surely agree with this, and making the CSS themable, pushing it out of the library implementation, was our first step to make sure we can improve on this. Our priorities for 2010 will no doubt be: - improve behavior and add more rich widgets - improve the look by making the theming support more powerful and better implemented - documentation ! > Either Emweb needs to make Wt UI's as pretty and > and functional as for example ExtJS UI's or maybe > they need to support something like ExtJs better. We have decided against further supporting something like ExtJS. While it is tempting, it is at the same time a great distraction because in the end we also need to work around the bugs and quirks in these toolkits.
