Best GWT widget library? [closed]

Do not bind yourself to ANY of these libraries. Use Vanilla GWT to create the structure of your project. In particular, use the MVP pattern and an Event Bus. Please, see google article to know how to best design your client application with GWT: Building MVP apps

Try to use extended components ONLY if you don’t see a way to do it with vanilla GWT.
