SmartGWT is a wrapper around the SmartClient JavaScript library.
Therefore, SmartGWT widgets aren't really GWT widgets (events are handled the SmartClient way, not the GWT way; AFAIK).
It also means that you'll load the whole SmartClient library, even if you only use one single widget.

Yes it is based on GWT since it uses JSNI which is part of GWT.
Smart GWT has terrific Widgets(and other) stuff that you wont find in vanilla GWT.
