About the Technology
Google Web Toolkit works on a simple idea. Write your web application in Java, and GWT crosscompiles it into javascript. It is open source, supported by Google, and version 2.5 now includes a library of high-quality interface components and productivity tools that make using GWT a snap. The javascript it produces is really good.
