IT Mill Toolkit 5 out of Beta

Dietrich Kappe, Tuesday, March 10, 2009 @ 4:17 pm

With the release of IT Mill Toolkit 5.3.0, the server-side RIA framework is now ready for production. I announced the initial release of 5.0 back in December of 2007. Since that time, IT Mill 5 has gone through several revisions and the release of GWT 1.5 (which means you can use Java 5 now on both the client and the server). As a reminder, server-side RIA frameworks let you write your app completely in the server and uses a client-side Ajax engine to render the interface. The nice wrinkle with IT Mill is that both the server side and the client side are written in Java, so if you want to add a component, you don't have to break out the JavaScript (see the extensive and high quality reference manual for details on how to develop your own custom components in GWT). If you're a Java shop, that's got to be a good thing.
