Dear GWT Users,

As ever, thanks for any help.

Quick (possibly stupid) question. I'd like to start investigating GWT Materials

http://gwtmaterialdesign.github.io/gwt-material-demo/#!gettingstarted

... states "Assuming that you're using UIBinder, add the following namespace to the <ui:UIBinder> element".

My current gwt application does not use UIBinder framework (just traditional Java). Do I have to switch to UIBinder if I want to use GWT Materials?

Regards, Sam

No, of course not.

Thanks Jens,

Many thanks. Yes, I see I can just instantiate Material objects directly

MaterialButton popupBtn = new MaterialButton();
// Button popupBtn = new Button();

Can I continue the same approach 'converting' each instance to Material versions? I'd stil like to use some of my existing styling / css.

What, in your opinion, is the best way to Materialise a gwt project?

Regards, Sam

I never used the library and I don't know you app. So no idea, if everything that this library offers fits your needs. But I am pretty sure you can mix it with your own stuff.

Just do what works for you.

Stefan,

Already did - thanks! If you look at the chat room history, you'll see me being a nuisance there too :)
