Differences between GWT and Vaadin

Question

Can anyone suggest whether \"GWT\" or \"Vaadin\" are a better choice to design an application? Also: what are the differences in coding style?

Answer 1

I belive Vaadin is a much more advanced framework than GWT BUT When it comes to optimise performance on the client side there is nothing much you can do unless you build your own components (and that's where the beauty of Vaadin stops) In a project i'm working right now 90% of the staff I've done worked as a charm And then I had to use an event timeline next to a couple of tables. When I loaded more than 400events on the timeline my web page was almost unusable not to mention terrible slow on initialisation. I've been trying to optimise the code the last two months. At the end I used a GWT component.
