Google App Engine Java and GWT Application Development

The challenges of building AJAX web applications with Java are brilliantly answered in this guide that walks you through GAE and GWT in easy steps. Packed full of useful examples and crystal clear instructions. Overview Comprehensive coverage of building scalable, modular, and maintainable applications with GWT and GAE using Java Leverage the Google App Engine services and enhance your app functionality and performance Integrate your application with Google Accounts, Facebook, and Twitter Safely deploy, monitor, and maintain your GAE applications A practical guide with a step-by-step approach that helps you build an application in stages What you will learn from this book Develop state-of-the-art AJAX web applications with optimized JavaScript using GAE and GWT Explore the basics of using Eclipse via a sample GWT/Google App Engine application generated automatically by the Google plugin Learn how GWT works as an AJAX framework, and why it makes you more productive as a developer Use GWT RPC for easy client-server communication Develop a GWT + App Engine application locally and use Eclipse for "one-click" deployment Construct GWT user-interface elements using UIBinder, so that layout and style information is separated from logic Integrate your application with Google Accounts, Facebook, and Twitter for user authentication and information retrieval Delve deeper, to investigate datastore-related ways to help increase the robustness, speed, and scalability of an App Engine app, and apply these techniques to our "Connectr" application Configure, deploy, monitor, and maintain an App Engine application Approach This is a practical guide with a step-by-step approach that builds an application in stages. Each stage of the application is used along with screenshots to introduce or develop your understanding of how to write powerful GAE applications.
