Re: Convert Existing GWT Backend to SPRING BOOT

Are you using gwt-RPC ?

Yes! we are using GWT-RPC & currently having a single WAR of near about 500mb, having CLIENT-SHARED-SERVER in a same project.

You'll need to switch to JSON for data transport.

Is there any drawback of switching to JSON in GWT, such as impact on performance etc.

You'll need to use something like DominoKit REST.

We found one RestyGWT, but not sure about its final impact as we haven't applied it yet. any suggestions...

It would be also be best to split the project into three projects. An API project, a shared code project, and a UI project.

We cannot get why keeping SHARED CODE as a separate project is best. We are not having any library of GWT on server side. So except MODELS, what are the other stuffs we can have in SHARED CODE PROJECT.   

If you are using gwt-RPC then IMHO there will need to be a big refactoring change at the very least

This is where we are stuck & looking for the solution with a minimum change and should be stable but unable to figure out yet.

You'll need to use something like DominoKit REST (https://github.com/DominoKit/domino-rest)  for the data transport layer.

We are having a huge project already running successfully on GWT.

But for some reasons we are planning to move our backend to SPRING-BOOT keeping front end in GWT. 

Is there any way we can do it easily without a big change in our existing application.
