Adding Spiffy to EXISTING GWT projests

[vitaly goji]

I have couple of existing GWT projects built with an Eclipse plugin.

Is there an easy way to add Spiffy widgets to existing GWT projest built with an Eclipse plugin?

Thanks

Hello Vitaly,

We have a whole page that shows you how to get started with Spiffy UI and it
walks you through the steps to integrate it with an existing project.

Good luck,
Zack

I read this on StackOverflow:

//////////////////

The short version of this thread is that Spiffy UI is set up for its own project management configuration and doesnot work as a drop-in modification for an existing vanilla GWT project as generated by the GWT project generator. As far as I can tell, this means that to use it I'm going to have to (1) generate a Spiffy UI project, and then (2) port my entire project into that. This is a big risk, as it makes it hard to turn Spiffy UI off again if I don't like it. I think this is a mistake in the way you have Spiffy UI set up: it should be "humble" and allow easily for other build systems

Is this true?

Can I just download jars , javascript and add to a project?

Where is download link?

Thanks.

Hi Vitaly,

That's not true. Spiffy UI offers build integration, but you don't have to use it. You can download the latest Spiffy UI JARs here:

https://oss.sonatype.org/index.html#nexus-search;quick~spiffyui

The spiffyui artifact is all you really need and the other two are build integration.

Can you please send me the link to where you read this on Stack Overflow so I can correct the answer.

Thank you,
Zack

That thread is way too old and does not have relevant information about SpiffyUI. 

As Zack just mentioned, SpiffyUI is a 100% compatible with existing GWT applications and you can make it work without too much effort. If you find any problems during the process just send us an email and we'll be glad to help you.

Regards, 

Marcos.

I will check in few month to see if there are straightforward instructions added to your website.

Don't have time to hack or fight strange stuff.

Thank you for your work.
