We had the same struggle, some time ago. Fortunately, a book was being written that we got early access to. Its called GWT in Action, and is now in full print. It includes MVP UiBinding and lots more. There may be a better resource now, but its still very relevant for current GWT development.

I've already found "GWT in Action" and took a look at the tutorial source codes. The reason I was reluctant to buy the book: Although there is a "Activities and Places" chapter in the book (chapter 15), the corresponding (and freely downloadable) example source code doesn't use this pattern. 

But as you suggesting it (and gwtproject.org do too), I will buy it to get a grasp of UIBinding, MVP, EventManager concepts. 

 

The website (gwtproject) itself is actually quite good now, but lacked a lot of this information in the past.

I've already gone through the StockWatcher tutorial. Its good to understand the structure of a gwt project and to learn what all the files are about...

 

Unfortunately the next locigal step (explain mvp) is only covered by two articles which are containing only source code snippets (and as a noob its quite a learning curve to fill in the gaps). 

I really wish there was more replete showcase, it seems I've stumbled across a couple not in the showcase. If I can't see a widget, its like it doesn't exist. :(

I learn GWT (and web development in general) and want to to things as they supposed to be done right from the start. 

I'm struggling in finding an up to date tutorial that explains all the suggested concepts combined. 

What I think I've learned so far is that this would be a "best practise" approach (at least for the client) from a high level point of view: 

- HTML + CSS definition for a widget "foo" (XML)

- UIBinding (using annotations) to a "foo" view class (V in MVP)

- Coupling the view to a "foo" activitiy (P in MVP)

- Use of Event-, Activity- and PlacesManager ("AppController" is a deprecated pattern(?))

- Use of ClientFactory for reusable Views

- Use of RequestFactory and EntityProxy as "M" part for DataBinding (using annotations)

A tutorial that uses all of the above mentioned paradigms at once would be much appreciated. 

Thanks in advance

Martin
