Description
This course provides an overview of the latest GWT (2.8.x) version features such as JsInterop and also Elemental 2. It takes a different look at GWT in the way that it promotes its usage as a helper tool that converts Java to JavaScript rather than a full fledged web framework. The course is aimed at you, whether you are new or have already worked with GWT, and has as main objective to simplify GWT development, and to make your GWT applications maintainable and future proof. The course presents both theory and practice material, and comes with fun quizzes to help you learn better.
