Overview

One of the most beneficial parts of GWT is that your standard Java IDE can help you develop an application without needing to memorize the API. This is especially true when using auto-completion capabilities of your IDE, but unfortunately this doesn’t apply to all aspects of GWT development.

DZone has developed a reference for these other bits, where the IDE is of little or no help. Specifically this includes a consolidated CSS class guide, a module configuration reference at the ready, and a reference to using JSNI. Topics covered:

  • Official GWT Web Sites
  • Styling Widgets with CSS
  • GWT Module Configuration
  • JavaScript Native Interface
  • Hot Tips and more...
