How do the Closure Tools relate to Google Web Toolkit?
Google Web Toolkit (GWT) provides a development tool chain for building and optimizing complex web applications, and is used in products like Google Wave and AdWords. Closure is a set of individual JavaScript tools that are also designed to help developers build complex web applications, and is used by Gmail, Google Maps, and Google Docs. Closure is geared toward developers who want to work with JavaScript and have a strong understanding of the language, while GWT allows developers to work primarily in Java (although they can work in JavaScript, too) without worrying about the underlying JavaScript.
