Using GWTBootstrap3 with existing server side framework

[Alankar Kampoowale]

Hi,

We have been using GWT for over 10 years and use a homegrown framework written in GWT that adds extra functionality to the base GWT widgets. We use the UI binder to specify the arrangement of the widgets on the screen, similar to how it's done with GWTBootstrap3's widgets. We would like to make our website responsive by using GWTBootstrap3's widgets, without changing any of the code written for calling server side code, which is done through the use of async callbacks and servlets. So we would like to know if we can do this or would we have to significantly change our code for calling server side code?

Also, is GWTBootstrap3 a project currently worked on e.g. bug fixes etc. or has it been inactive for a while and no new work or support is anticipated for it?

I'd greatly appreciate any responses to this inquiry. If you'd like to know more about our project and how we're using GWT, I'd be more than willing to share that information.

Thanks,

Alankar

It would be very difficult to say if GWTBoostrap3's widgets would integrate well with your existing code so I guess my best answer is, it depends.

As to your second question, this project is largely inactive, which means that I don't anticipate adding any new features or attempting to port this code to bootstrap 4.  I do try and fix bugs as they are identified and release those fixes as appropriate.

If you are happy with bootstrap 3 then I believe this library will work well for you.  It is mature and stable.

Thanks!

Steve
