Dojo Dijit and HTML5 in Real world applications/HTML5/Declarative VS. Programmatic dijit vidget

Declarative VS. Programmatic dijit vidget

 * Programmatic widget creation is faster because the working in DOM has an overhead on searching elements that should become widgets.
 * Declarative widget creation has some limitation on methods
 * Declarative widget creation allows you to code simple pages faster. If your page isn't too big, the speed difference between declarative and programmatic widget creation is small.

In short: Simple thing, feel free to declare the widgets directly in the HTML. For more complex solutions program it in the JavaScript section of the document.
