Google Web
Toolkit (GWT)
is an open source development toolkit that you can use to quickly
create and develop AJAX applications for all major browsers. These
types of web applications offer users more immediate feedback and
interactivity and provide features that in tha past were only found in
rich client applications. More and more enterprises are starting to
consider and use GWT, and it could become a very popular web
application development framework. The following are important
documetation, articles, and tutorials that will help you learn more
about GWT and start you on your way to using it for your application
deveopment.

Designer User Guide
GWT Designer is a powerful and easy to use
bi-directional GUI creator that you can use to
generate Java
code. With this tool you can: add controls using drag-and-drop, add
event
handlers to your controls, and change various properties of controls
using
a property editor. Your updates to the generated code are
reflected back in the visual designer. You can also reverse
engineer code by using the parser. GWT Designer is built as a plug-in
to Eclipse 3.2
(or higher) and any Eclipse 3.2-based IDE.
