Is it possible to create a purely client-side GWT application?

Tags:

gwt

I'm fairly familiar with GWT - having completed the Eclipse-based tutorial. But the tutorial runs in client-server mode.

My question is: is it possible to create a GWT application that completely runs client-side, where javascript/html is generated but there is no reliance on backend java classes?

I understand that the full breadth of GWT capability may not be present (including the use of Java runtime functionality), but I remain interested in such a solution.

cheers, Ian

GWT application are basically client side application.

For the hosted mode since their is some debugging involve it use java.

When you do a normal (release) compilation GWT would generate the javascript of your application and you don't need the java at server side anymore.

See the documentation there, in web mode the javascript are produced and you don't need the java server side anymore.
