Hello all I'm looking for best practices in developing GWT apps. Let's assume we are 3-5 programmers working on a fairly big GWT app. I could not find any straightforward information on this. Maybe because it's absolutely clear for most developers or maybe there are just too many possible solutions.
I know that this is not just a GWT specific question. Anyways, back to our scenario. Let's assume its an GWT app with a database behind, and using JAVA in the backend. Everything is working on Linux basis. My situation: I'm developing and debugging locally, then deploy the .war file manually on my tomcat server. This works fine when working alone. Now, a couple of friends want to join in. The whole thing gets complex. What setup (e.g. server, software) would you use to handle such a scenario? Here are a couple thoughts I ran into: 1. Should each developer develop and debug locally (sharing files via subversion) ? There is a big down-side on this. Each developer needs to do the server configuration in order to keep the app running locally. Is there an alternative? 2. How can one add server-side debug ability to the test server? On the test server runs the app in hosted mode. How can errors, warnings be stored and outputted to the developer? Is there a software or do you work with error logs? 3. How can one export the files from a test server to a production server? Is there any software which supports such function? I'm programming for quite a while now, but I don't have any experiences in programming together with other developers. So, basically I would love to know anything how you guys develop GWT apps in teams. Please let me know if I shall be more precise.
