  • Widget Creation: Design and develop custom GWT widgets and components to enhance user experience.
  • Event Handling and DOM Manipulation: Implement event-driven programming models and manipulate the DOM efficiently.
• Performance Optimization:
  • Code Splitting: Use GWT's code-splitting capabilities to improve the initial load time and performance of web applications.
  • Deferred Binding: Leverage deferred binding to reduce code size and enhance performance by loading only the necessary code for the specific runtime environment.
• Testing and Debugging:
  • Unit Testing: Write unit tests for GWT components and use GWT TestCase for client-side logic testing using PlayWright.
  • Integration Testing: Implement integration tests to ensure seamless interaction between front-end and back-end components.
  • Debugging: Use GWT's debugging tools to identify and fix issues in the application.
• Collaboration:

  • Code Reviews: Participate in code reviews to maintain code quality and share knowledge with team members.

 (DevOps)

• Infrastructure Management:
  • Cloud Services: Manage and configure cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP) for hosting GWT applications.
  • Containerization: Implement containerization technologies like Docker to ensure consistent environments across development, testing, and production.
  • Configuration Management: Use tools like Terraform, Ansible, or Chef to automate infrastructure configuration and management.
• CI/CD Pipeline:
  • Continuous Integration: Set up CI pipelines to automate the building and testing of GWT applications using tools like Harness, Bamboo, and Jenkins
  • Continuous Deployment: Create CD pipelines to automate the deployment of GWT applications to various environments (staging, production).
• Monitoring and Logging:
  • Application Monitoring: Implement monitoring or observability tools (NewRelic) to track the performance and health of GWT applications in production.
  • Logging: Set up centralized logging systems (Splunk) to aggregate and analyze application logs for troubleshooting and performance analysis.
• Security and Compliance:
  • Security Practices: Implement security measures such as SSL/TLS, secure coding practices, and regular vulnerability assessments (Snyk) to protect the application and data.
  • Compliance: Ensure the application and infrastructure comply with relevant industry standards and regulations.
