[fcui01]

what IDE were you using during your presenation and programming your javascript code? Where can I get it?

[Mark1Mach2]

@fcui01 I would like to know the same, what is the IDE?

[fcui01]

I guess the IDE, integrated development environment, used during the presentation to program was eclipse.

[rhillner]

eclipse....google it

[tapgyn]

I can't hear what he's saying, but looks great,

see the icons... =D

[Mark1Mach2]

@tapgyn Increase the volume and use headphones - it helps with the volume.

[ifteebuet]

GWT rocks

[crackwitz]

please amplify that audio and reupload!

[tapgyn]

you gotta enhance your asking skills....

here's what you should say

"Pleeeease, we really want to hear the presentation,

if you reupload it we will listen to it

and you will get more GWT users from it"

[rodrifox17]

Audio quality is really bad... actually there's no audio "quality" at all. Anyway, great presentation.

[rsanjay2008]

what the f***...can not hear anything clearly!!!Duh...hope this video gets uploaded again!!!

[emptycorp]

Google only hires coders, not audiophiles.

[umpirsky]

GWT rocks |..|

[realisoph]

please next time... preamp audio. I could hardly hear anything!

[54spiritedwill54]

Remarkable!

[solidabsinthe]

Great presentation, gotta get Edward Norton to starr as the guy to the right, should it ever become a film!

[mmayan]

I wish the video had a better resolution or I could get these slides from somewhere.

[mmayan]

Never Mind! I found almost the exact slides on Google's Developer website.

[crapufish]

Could you provide a link?

[fashnek]

Google Web Toolkit website -> Docs tab (top right) -> Slides & Videos (left side). It's the one called "Fast, Easy, Beautiful: Pick Three".

[javababyduke]

I've seen some notes about 'eclipse', I'd just like to point out that GWT does not need anything other than Java compiler and GWT jar dependency to cross-compile. There is a Netbeans and Eclipse plug-in, but you don't have to use them.

[JeffreyRodriguez]

Disclaimer: I haven't yet worked with GWT.

The biggest complaint he had "it doesn't work cross-browser" can easily be addressed with MochiKit. Not only that, but MochiKit makes DOM and AJAX pretty easy.

[nyenyec]

Huh? Isn't GWT already cross-browser?

[JeffreyRodriguez]

I was referring to how the Google guy was complaining about the cross-browser compatibility of JavaScript in general.

[klined]

you missed the point jeffrey

[miken700]

Excellent video. I'm actually excited about writing AJAX which I never was before because of how hacky it normally tends to be. Cross-compiling from Java to JavaScript is such a smart idea core idea. It's a way better paradigm than code generators and straight JS libraries which tends to create idiosyncratic macro-languages with no tools. Image-bundle along with compile-time errors are a major major wins from this not to mention the JS code optimizations that this allows.

[miken700]

Excellent video. Nicely presented. After watching it I'm actually excited about writing AJAX which I never was never before because of how hacky it usually tends to be. GWT seems to address this issue head on rather than other frameworks I've seen.

[spoonf]

well, thats fine but where can I get higher resolution video?

[hansr69]

it's JDeveloper

[knvb1123]

Its Eclipse

[pulterao]

does anybody know what programing IDE are they using in programing the sample app ?

[gimmeaniddudes]

Eclipse

[ramonklown]

Why did everybody laugh when the guy said:"Even dough it's open source we've decided to document it."

People don't want to dive into 50,000 lines of code to find out one-by-one what each method/class does. Seems normal and obvious to me to document it :), by the way great work on this.

[BlueEyedSexyPants]

The joke was about the lack of documentation for open-source projects. He was saying, "Unlike a typical open-source project, we've actually bothered to document."

[blandyfan]

This video does not load, or loads very, very slowly. Waited 20 minutes and got 30 seconds. Other youtube videos load fine. Tried different browsers, too.

[phonejammer]

Incredible! Bruce Johnson is very charismatic. GWT is awesome

[alamandrax]

Bruce Johnson, have phonejammer's babies!

[klauskerner]

Remarkable!

[pinolinopinin]

Grate, I will try, but first I've to learn a java !!

[fashnek]

You ought to try BabelFish when you want to speak English. :)

[PGTaboada]

Best overview on GWT and new 1.4 features I found until now. Thanks.
