Build 13 of the Synth App.

Yep we have reached build 13. That is I have done 13 uploads to the google app engine for this little idea/site. From a users point of view not a lot has changed over the past couple of days but from my perspective quite a bit has changed.

I hooked in the basics of the browser history support. While the single button does not need history support  it force me to get an understanding of the problem so hopefully avoid problems in the future. Currently my view is the app will be fairly light on back button support, a bit like gmail is.

I also rewrote the UI to use UiBinder. Ok move a button and a link across to UiBinder is not a big deal but it has removed the I have never used UiBinder so it must be hard thoughts. It is not hard, in fact it is quite easy.

So far I have been finding GWT quite nice to use. I feel I have enough Java UI experience with Swing and Android that learning the UI part of GWT is turning out to be fairly easy. I may well eat my own words at some point in the future!
