''Here should go an detailed and systematic description of possible implementations of web-based GUI for GRASS GIS as discussed for GSoC 2014.''


== Wt ==

Pros:

 * 

Cons:

 * 



== GTK+ Broadway ==

Starts its own graphical session which instead of rendering on screen (as X server would do) renders HTML5.

Pros:

 * No need to write any GUI code, so there is no duplication and no additional maintenance

Cons:

 * Not (yet?) available for wxPython (done for GTK+, works with wxWidgets)
 * Not possible to include web technologies (WebGL), tools (e.g. IPython Notebook) and JS libraries (d3)
 * 3D view (nviz) in GUI will not work (G7:m.nviz.image might)

Others:

 * Still needs file management to be implemented.

Cons:

 * Although it uses free and open source, the solution itself is proprietary (which completely disqualifies it here)
