GWT a Year Later: Was it the correct level of abstraction?
A little over a year ago, Ajaxian published an editorial entitled Google Web Toolkit: The correct level of abstraction? In it, Dion raised some important questions about GWT:
* Isn't debugging generated Javascript going to be messy?
* Wouldn't the large size of the generated Javascript make it's use infeasible?
* Where is all of the cool stuff, like effects libraries, etc.?
* Is generating "assembler" in Javascript really the right level of abstraction?
