Re: GWT + Open API

Accessing REST apis using JsInterop is easy and natural. RestyGWT add almost nothing if you use JsInterop so you better use XMLHttpRequest directly (RequestBuilder is easier, and is a thin wrapper around XMLHttpRequest). If you want a bit of code-organization, you might use AutoREST, but this do not add more than a template to define each endpoint, actually enforces you to use JAX-RS, which might just block you in some cases. You really should try to map a few endpoints with a few models using JsInterop and com.google.gwt.http.client.RequestBuilder to feel how easy and clean it is. Do it progressively mapping each endpoint you need to use. If you have any doubt just ask for the specific endpoint or model you have a problem with.

Thank you, Ignacio, for your input.

What's cool in your solution is that it uses the JsInterop provided by
GWT.

I wonder what are the pro and cons of the JsInterop approach versus
the RestyGWT approach.
