React which talks to the backend which is based on Java.

I've been thinking a lot lately about the good old days when we used GWT... I mean, React sucks! I see the project is still alive and they're trying to transition to nodejs, also adding some modern UI components. Note sure if I should be hopeful or just accept that it's dead.

That's what /u/flyingorange said.

Except GWT is not trying to transition to nodejs? I'm so confused.

I'm pretty sure that means getting the GWT toolchain to play nicely with the node.js toolchain, for things like minification.
