In this session we will walk through the features of the Google Web Toolkit from a Java developer's perspective. From installation to application development and deployment, we will see how the Google Web Toolkit can help Java developers get work done. Google Web Toolkit takes our Java code and produces HTML and JavaScript to create a fully functioning Web 2.0/AJAX based Web application. We will discuss problems encountered when developing AJAX Web applications for cross browser support and how the Google Web Toolkit has solved our problems. Of course, we will also look at some code and we will see what it takes to create our own Java Web application with the Google Web Toolkit.
