I feel like everything is eventually going to go full circle back to Google Web Toolkit[0]. The original "write it all in X language" toolkit with compile to JavaScript functionality.

- Varriount 3y agoAny idea what/which websites are written using GWT?
- snodnipper 3y agoIt was Google Adwords that was the big one to my mind...with Ray Ryan (rjrjr) leading a lot of those efforts.
- snodnipper 3y agoI was a massive GWT fan - particularly because it played well with the Java ecosystem. 1. huge programmer pool 2. tried and tested legacy code could be easily used / adapted 3. code quality / checkstyle plugins just worked 4. great testing tools My main gripe was the compile time (often 2-3 mins)...whereas Adobe Flex would crank code out in 3 seconds. Now, the new language models should help us push through the noise.
