About this Presentation

What's the best Web Framework? It's a question developers often ask when they begin they begin a new project. This session will take a cynical look at four web frameworks that make developers happy: Rails, Grails, GWT and Flex.

APIs are easy to create with both Rails and Grails, but which one scales better? Rich UIs can be created with GWT or Flex, but do both offer end users the same user experience? This session looks at the pros and cons of each framework and will help you decide which
framework might work best for your application.
