We are happy to announce a new release of the qooxdoo Web Toolkit. QWT is a qooxdoo-contrib project that provides an alternative, Java-only programming model for the qooxdoo JavaScript framework.

It allows you to create qooxdoo applications just by leveraging Java technology - no HTML, CSS, DOM nor JavaScript knowledge is needed. You can take full advantage of the typical Java IDE features (like auto-completion, etc.) while coding your application. The Java source code is automatically transformed into the qooxdoo JavaScript equivalent before deployment.

Version 0.2.0 of QWT features a simplified installation, MS Windows support and Reverse Ajax (a.k.a. Comet, still experimental).

Just download it, installation should be a piece of cake. For more information please have a look at the QWT documentation.

The project is still in its early stages, any of your feedback and contribution is appreciated. Have fun.
