I need a website well referenced on the web (SEO), and also accessible without JS. But I also need an administration for this website (I do not want to use a CMS for my case), so I want to do my admin application in GWT (I do not have experience in GWT). In order to help me, I wiil use the Spring Framework.
What I do not understand is how things happen at the level server (I have never developped a JAVA APPLET)…Do I have just one project (Spring) that will receive/send http requests for my website and that will also let people using the GWT app ?
Will non-js browser be always able to go to my website (I am afraid that the GWT app will imply that my website will also nedd js) ?
Sorry if I am not clear, maybe you can understand my problem and recommend me something ?
Tkx,
Yes, GWT heavily uses JavaScript, so if this is a requirement for you: rather have a look for another framework like Spring for instance. Probably have a look at https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=java+web+framework which brings up tens of questions regarding this topic.
Furthermore, don’t mix Applets with server-side application, those are purely client-side applications (and rarely used nowadays).
