title: Choosing a Web User Interface library
body: <p>I was asked by the company I work to create a web user interface for a fleet managment system they have developed.</p>
  
  <p>This system is written in java so I thought  that the library I should compatible with java or language neutral. Additionally it should be free/open source, as well as full-featured  </p>
  
  <p>After a small search I found the following libraries:</p>
  
  <p>1)
  <a href="http://dhtmlx.com/index.shtml" rel="nofollow">http://dhtmlx.com/index.shtml</a></p>
  
  <p>2) <a href="https://vaadin.com/home" rel="nofollow">https://vaadin.com/home</a></p>
  
  <p>Currently I face the following critical question: should I rely on a server side library for the creation of the User Interface or should I prefer a client side one ?</p>
  
  <p>What is more are there any other important web user interface libraries that I should be aware of ?</p>
  
  <p>Since I do not have any experience in the topic, every advice will be very useful : )</p>
