I came across and incredible piece on MVC and web development:
it should be abundantly clear that the traditional “MVC” is back with a vengeance: the blurred lines between which bits of code are responsible for “Model business logic” validation are gone, and the blurred lines regarding which bits of code are responsible for generation of the “View” are also gone – but not completely. It’s up to the developer to decide how far they want to deviate from the traditional ‘HTML’ style of display / information rendering. Not everybody is comfortable with the use of Widgets that are executed as Javascript to do the job that HTML used to do (even if it’s behind a javascript framework such as mochikit, extjs or prototype), and fortunately, both the GWT and the Pyjamas frameworks do an extremely good job of supporting and interacting with straight HTML (investigate the HTMLPanel widget, for example, for details).
Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to replace Javascript as the only way to manipulate the DOM in browsers. Wouldn’t it be cool if instead of Javascript you could throw Java, python,
