Beginning Google Web Toolkit - From Novice to Professional
The open source, lightweight Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is a framework that allows Java developers to build Rich Internet Applications (RIA), more recently called Ajax applications, in Java. Typically, writing these applications requires a lot of JavaScript development. However, Java and JavaScript are very distinctively different languages (although the name suggests otherwise), therefore requiring a different development process. In Beginning Google Web Toolkit: From Novice to Professional, you'll learn to build rich, user-friendly web applications using a popular Java-based Ajax web framework, the Google Web Toolkit. Industry veteran Bram Smeets will guide you through the complete development of a GWT front end application with a no-nonsense, down-to-earth approach.
