Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is an open source Java software development
framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and
Gmail easy for developers who don't speak browser quirks as a second
language. Writing dynamic web applications today is a tedious and
error-prone process; you spend 90% of your time working around subtle
incompatibilities between web browsers and platforms, and JavaScript's
lack of modularity makes sharing, testing, and reusing AJAX components
difficult and fragile.
GWT lets you avoid many of these headaches while offering your users
the same dynamic, standards-compliant experience. You write your front
end in the Java programming language, and the GWT compiler converts
your Java classes to browser-compliant JavaScript and HTML.
