I wrote my experience using the SNAPSHOT version of GWT Boot for my internal Java Training: http://bit.ly/2L54Etr

Would like to know whether someone has the same experience?

Thanks,
Lofi

Nice article, thanks for sharing it.

I wonder if it's time to move from maven to gradle (in general and also talking specifically about GWT Boot).

Thanks for the comment.

I don't think that we can say that Gradle will remove Maven in the future, since Maven is also still in development. 

For many reasons it is also easier to stay with Maven. Not every projects have a high requirement for build process. So IMHO Maven is still the simplest way to build your Java project.

But it would be also nice to be able to support Gradle just like what Spring Boot has done. For this I need to know is there any standard Gradle Plugin for GWT compiler?

Thanks
Lofi

Hi,

I also think that Maven is not a bad choice for the most of projects and personally use it for all my projects. But support the Gradle is not a bad idea :) 

If you need more information about GWT + Gradle you can ask Thomas Broyer, as I know he is a big enthusiast of the Gradle.

I am :-)
Though I have very limited experience with GWT and Gradle.

I know about two such plugins: https://github.com/Putnami/putnami-gradle-plugin and https://github.com/steffenschaefer/gwt-gradle-plugin, though the latter is unmaintained afaict.
Fwiw, I'd start with simple JavaExec tasks and customized configs (to bring sources into the classpath), then only try to find out what more those plugins would bring me (Putnami's devmode+Jetty looks interesting).

Also, FYI, GWT 3 will come with "official" plugins for both Maven and Gradle.
