Google I/O 2010 - GWT Linkers target HTML5 Web Workers, Chrome Extensions, and more

GWT 301

Matt Mastracci

At its core GWT has a well-defined and customizable mechanism -- called Linkers -- that controls exactly how GWT's compiled JavaScript should be packaged, served, and run. This session will describe how to create linkers and explains some of the linkers we've created, including a linker that turns a GWT module into an HTML5 Web Worker and one that generates an HTML App Cache manifest automatically.

Well done, Matt. I remember smacking my head months ago the first time you mentioned using GWT to compile to Chrome and Firefox extensions.
