GWT Insights | Sumble

What is GWT?

GWT (Google Web Toolkit) is a development toolkit for building complex web applications in Java. It allows developers to write client-side code in Java and then compile it into JavaScript, which can then run in a web browser. GWT is commonly used for creating rich internet applications (RIAs) and single-page applications (SPAs) due to its ability to abstract away many browser inconsistencies and provide a structured development environment.
