Ryan clearly understands the GWT value proposition and how GWT
integrates into a diverse web technology stack-and not just in a
theoretical way. With the popularity of gpokr.com and kdice.com, Ryan
can speak with the authority of concrete success."
-Bruce Johnson, creator of Google Web Toolkit
"This book distinguishes itself from other books on GWT in that it walks
through the entire process of building several nontrivial GWT
applications, not the toy applications that most books present."
-R. Mark Volkmann, Object Computing, Inc.
"Google Web Toolkit Applications is an excellent resource for any GWT
developer. Solutions to challenges commonly encountered in GWT are
presented through the design and development of actual applications. The
applications developed throughout the text demonstrate best practices
from simple UI design all the way to custom code generation, and are
presented with little pretext about the amount of Java knowledge a given
developer may have. Advanced concepts are not withheld but are presented
in a way that will be understood by both novice and seasoned developers
alike. Good application development practices and proper Model View
Controller design is reinforced throughout the book, nearly guaranteeing
that the reader will come away a better programmer. "
-Jason Essington, Senior Web/Java Engineer, Green River Computing
"Dewsbury's Google Web Toolkit Applications is a book for both experts
and beginner programmers who want to discover this open source Java
software development framework, as well as write Ajax applications. A
very detailed book!"
-Massimo Nardone, Advisory IT Security Architect
Accelerate and Simplify Ajax Development with Google Web Toolkit
Get the edge you need to deliver exceptional user experiences with

communication with HTTP, REST, JSON/JSONP, and RPC Interoperating with
web standards-such as XML, RSS, and Atom-and web services-such as Google
Maps, Amazon Books, Yahoo! Search, Flickr, and Blogger
- Overcoming browser security restrictions, such as HTTP's
two-connection limit and the Same-Origin policy
- Accelerating development, using software engineering, code
generation, internationalization, application patterns, and Java tools
- Deploying for optimal performance with resource compression and
caching
- Building five non-trivial applications: a gadget application with a
rich drag-and-drop interface, a multi-search application that makes
requests to many search engines, a blog editor application for managing
entries across multiple blogs, a web-based instant messenger, and a
database manager for a traditional web page
This practical guide to GWT introduces you to the technology; provides
techniques, tips, and examples; and puts you on the road to delivering
