I created a complete website using the Google Web Designer tool. I was driven by curiosity and the desire to try new things. Though I am not a fully fledged programmer. I usually do this as a pastime activity. I couldn’t find a thorough review recommending the Google Web Designer (tool) as a website building tool. So, I did everything using my own skills including linking the pages and designing the home page LOL. I am now looking forward to testing it with different devices and adding contents before I launch it. The point is; The Google Web Designer tool can indeed create a sleek website at this point of writing (May 20th, 2015). More to come....

Hey Frank...
Thanks for posting your screen shot.

Any chance of seeing the actual webpage?
I've spoken to lots of trial users and they all have a problem coming to grips with Google's total control of the entire process of page creation ...in particular... The fact Google has got a less than intuitive CSS system.

I struggled with GWS for weeks until finally going back to the more familiar 'Bootstrap" for my responsive site needs. I would really like to hear from anyone who has successfully taught themselves to use the "Google Web Toolkit". Did you you use it?

 Hey Ryad...

I am finalizing my website so that I can launch it soon for everyone to see.  I actually taught myself how to use the ''Google Web Designer toolkit''.
The screen-shot you saw was 100% a product of GWD. As of now, the site is running but on local machines. Another thing  is that I have my own private server that I created myself (for free). It's running on UBUNTU.  That why I can see the final output of my project.  So, watch this space....

That makes it smaller, the text it's ilegible. I think the best option is to make it on 3 different sizes with the propper design and size for text and images.. For computer, tablet and cellphone.

Hi ,
You can add the Paypal button if you like. Just copy the code and paste it on your web page as you wish. It is free.  Or did I get your question wrong?

Regards
I.am.Frank.
