Given the upcoming changes in GWT 3.0 and in particular the gwt.user package being removed; I have a query regarding future of Cell Widgets.
This is a powerful widget set unique to GWT and it seems there is nothing else out there quite like it (perhaps Vaadin and Sencha are the exception, although I believe they extend/composite the core cell library anyway).
I believe this is one gwt.user component worth salvaging as a drop-in replacement (where possible) for us migrating our apps to GWT 3.0 in the future. I say this because other widgets are somewhat trivial compared to the Cell Widgets that are easily replaced by either plain old HTML or for the more exotic, Web Components or your favourite UI library (jQuery UI, Bootstrap etc).
I would be curious to understand how this is would be done. Would be perhaps scaffold our tables in HTML, append relevant data-cell-table attributes and transform the DOM using Elemental?
Is this a valid assertion or are porting the Cell Widgets not the way to go? Please discuss
