GWT as easy as 1-2-3
Abstract
Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is a 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. GWT lets you avoid many 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.
This lab will guide students through creating an extensible, event-based, multi-user chat AJAX application.
This will be an interactive, hands-on tutorial, so please bring your computer. We will be giving out a CD with all the software needed for the lab.
Experience with JavaScript, HTML is advised but not required.
