gwt-leaflet

Build Status

A lightweight mapping alternative to popular mapping APIs like Google Maps and OpenLayers.

The library uses Leaflet, an open-source javascript library for mobile-friendly interactive maps by CloudMade, to implement a collection of mapping Widgets which GWT projects can use to implement mapping capabilites on the client-side of a GWT application. The Leaflet API is a third-party javascript and is integrated with GWT as Java classes using JSNI and Type Overlays.
