copied!<p>I'm going to second the use of <a href="http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">GWT</a>. I've used it for several projects and, when used in combination with a modern editor like <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Eclipse</a> or <a href="http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">IDEA</a>, it really makes the <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/247209/javascript-how-do-you-organize-this-mess">mess</a> manageable.</p> <p>It's important to note that not only does it allow you to write in Java and have that transformed into optimized and <a href="http://code.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=55203&topic=10212" rel="nofollow noreferrer">obfuscated</a> Javascript it also comes with a <a href="http://code.google.com/docreader/#p=google-web-toolkit-doc-1-5&s=google-web-toolkit-doc-1-5&t=RefJreEmulation" rel="nofollow noreferrer">substantial subset</a> of the core Java API. In addition to this they provide lots of additional classes for doing things like parsing and working with <a href="http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.5/com/google/gwt/json/client/package-summary.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JSON</a> and <a href="http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.5/com/google/gwt/xml/client/package-summary.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">XML</a> and communicating with a server via <a href="http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.5/com/google/gwt/http/client/package-summary.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">asynchronous HTTP</a>. You can check out the <a href="http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.5/index.html?overview-summary.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">docs</a> to get an idea of what else they offer.</p> <p>Another feature that might be of special interest to you for implementing drag and drop functionality is it's integration with javascript libraries like <a href="http://extjs.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Ext</a> and <a href="http://script.aculo.us/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">scriptaculous</a>. Either through pre-built <a href="http://extjs.com/products/gxt/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">interfaces</a> or via <a href="http://googlewebtoolkit.blogspot.com/2008/07/getting-to-really-know-gwt-part-1-jsni.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JSNI</a></p>
