I read two books about GWT and I like it a lot and plan on using GWT for my future projects at work. Although GWT is very promising, it comes with a steep learning curve. You need to know quite a bit to be productive. For quick prototyping I still prefer Hamlets (http://hamlets.sourceforge.net/). My $0.02 Rene
I find the separation of content and presentation the most important aspect of a framework. Then comes simplicity; I don't want to spend months to learn the framework. And last, I don't want anything that hides the foundation underneath. With these three requirements in mind, I rolled my own framework: Hamlets. You find it here:
I wrote this small-footprint servlet-based content creation framework for an internal project at IBM Research. The framework is easy-to-understand and easy-to-use. You can download the library from

I couldn't agree more. I looked at JSF before I invented Hamlets. In 10 minutes you are up and running!
