Re: Is there any newer gwt library other than smartgwt and gxt?

There is still gwt-ext. Although it only supports earlier versions of
EXT, it is still an excellent UI toolkit. It's too bad about the
split into SmartGWT and GXT -- neither have been as good as the old
days of gwt-ext. It seems like the EXT license debacle has really
been a major blow to developing great-looking UI's on GWT.
