Pro Web 2.0 Application Development with GWT
This book is for developers who are ready to move beyond small proof - of - concept sample applications and want to look at the issues surrounding a real deployment of GWT. If you want to see what the guts of a full - fledged GWT application look like, this is the book for you.
GWT 1.5 is a game - changing technology, but it doesn't exist
in a bubble. Real deployments need to connect to your database, enforce authentication, provide protection from security threats, and allow good search engine optimization.
To show you all this, this book looks at the code behind a real live web site called ToCollege.net. This application specializes in helping students who are applying to colleges, allowing them to manage their application process and compare the rankings that they give to each school. It's a slick application that's ready for you to sign up and use.
The audience for this book either owns another GWT book for the basic tutorials or is comfortable using the online documentation and forums when they're stuck, which allows this book to move quickly and focus on answering the bigger architecture questions.
