[Users] What is difference between Geoext and Mapfish?

[Myeong Hun Jeong]

Thank you Eric Lemoine for your reply.

As I understand, according to your explanation, MapFish is a framework
providing an integrated solution. It means that the developer doesn’t need
to download Ext, Openlayers and Geoext. It also supplys Javascript build
tool, unit test suite etc. Thus, Geoext is one of Mapfish components to help
mix of Ext and Openlayers. Is it right?
So, we can develop application only with Geoext, Ext and Openlayers without
Mapfish. But it is time consuming.

And I have another question. What is the license of Geoext? Mapfish is GNU
GPL3.
Is the Geoext the same?



Thanks in advance.

Sincerely yours,
Myeonghun Jeong.
