Hi everyone, 

I have just started with GWT and came across this dilemma. Well, I am aware of a several ways to styling the app, however I find it hard to figure out which technique I should choose, which will conform to the current standards. I thought, since I have experience in CSS and HTML, I could do all the styling in *.css files, but is it how GWT wants me to do it? I am just looking to pros and cons of the methods of styling.

As for CssResource/GssResource  vs. an "external" stylesheet, CssResource/GssResource brings minification and obfuscation (so you don't have to think about how to name things to make sure there won't be naming conflicts), and a bit of "type safety" (by matching class names to Java interface methods, so you'll never make a typo in a class name and later wonder why your style is not applied)
