silverlight - What are the options for developing powerful browser hosted UI in Java? -
i interested widen horizons , wish learn options developing powerful browser hosted ui in java. know .net based solutions, silverlight, find extremely powerful, although not without regretful omissions compared elder brother - wpf.
so, rephrase question. there mature silverlight alternatives in java?
thanks.
p.s.
- i not starting war of java vs .net, please not raise benefits of java against .net in general. interested in specific area only, else put aside.
- please, not bring adobe air, flex, html5, etc... questions java.
the question java, front-ends web never written in pure java.
gwt - that's write pure java translated javascript , html automatically
jsf - reuse rich components create pages. still there's html , javascript. resembles asp.net model
vaadin - heard of it, never used it. seems promising
zk - same above.
jquery - yes, has nothing java, powerful tool creating rich ui
flex - easy integration java back-ends. (i don't flex, it's viable option)
(i omitted javafx, because in opinion not yet mature)
