I started a week ago...

http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/overview.html

is quite comprehensive. Also, I think that GWTP is quite useful as it
makes it easy to use MVP and hyperlink navigation in your project.

Then we have a lot of examples here including links to screencasts:

This is what I did to learn GWT.

1) Go through the slides on here: http://courses.coreservlets.com/Course-Materials/gwt.html
These slides are nice to give you little kick start. But don't doesn't
explain the newer GWT well enough.

2) Buy the Manning's GWT in Action Second Edition MEAP. This book
rocks in every way. The above slides gives you a brief overview of GWT
but it is way old. Newer GWT is all about UIBinder instead of
Procedural Java programming. You need to understand UIBinder, GWT-RPC,
MVP with Activities and Places extremely well. The first few chapters
and these three I mentioned above are very important. Knowing about
different widgets and panels can be learn as you go. But the above
three would make you very comfortable as most of the newer GWT code
are using UIBinder and Activities and Places.

Remember, there is no right way or wrong way. You can design page in
any way you want. Ultimately it all gets converted to JavaScript. It
all comes with more hands on you have better you get at it and what's
your needs are really.

3) Then go through documentation and tutorial on Google's GWT site.
http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/index.html

4) You can then read the remaining chapters from the book as you start
getting comfortable like: JUnit testing, Deferred binding, Gin/Guice.
I prefer to use JUnit testing using mockito and it all depends on how
to really do code splitting. What's should be your ideal views and
what should be inside activities.

Hope that helps.
