Vitor Medina Cruz
Hello,

What's is the difference? Why should I use one or another?

Hi Vitor,

Willow is built on top of Seaside and it aims to ease the creation of interactive AJAX-based web applications. So if you're planning to do a lot of partial page rendering via AJAX updates it's worth a try.
We're using it for several applications and the only full page refresh is done on the first request reception, all the other interactions in the application are handled by AJAX. One of its main features is to abstract away a lot of the complexity of hand made AJAX calls.

You can take a look at the slides and videos of the last talk we do in the subject to get an idea of when it's useful:

Feel free to ask any more questions here or on the discord channel.

Regards,
Gabriel
