Re: GwtMaterialDesign vs gwt-polymer-elements

Hi,

You can mix gwt-material and Vaadin's polymer elements in the same project.

After working for years with Sencha's GXT I decided to try gwt-material, which looks a lot better and does not have the high cost of GXT. Migration was easy and painless. When I found a bug in gwt-material uploader (the bug has now been fixed), I tried the polymer uploader from Vaadin in the project and it worked very well. Both libraries can coexist peacefully.   

When the uploader was fixed, I decided to complete the project using gwt-material only. Vaadin's polymer elements are nice but I like gwt-material appearance more.

Regards,

Rodolfo

Hi all,

I've got a 3 year old enterprise GWT app which also has a mobile app based on GWT. Our current design style is based on Bootstrap. As things change, I'd like to freshen the UX by using Material Design. I've seen 2 libraries: GwtMaterialDesign and gwt-polymer-elements. 

From what I can see:

- Both showcases look great, esp both seem to have an "enterprise" class table/grid control.

- GwtMaterialDesign: Read quite positive things in terms of community.

- gwt-polymer-elements: By Vaadin which are quite active in the GWT world now, based on "real" Polymer elements and the new GWT 2.8 elemental (?)

Would be great if anyone could comment on using either of them as I think once we've decided for one of the libraries, it will be hard to switch.

Any feedback would be great!

Thanks,

Thomas
