GwtQuery best practices developer guide #309

Closed aino-gautam closed 8 years ago

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

The missing element for this wonderful library seems to be a best practices guide. e.g. I am at my wits end deciding if I should using GWT's Activities / places or NOT or to use Mvp4g or some other MVP framework.

We should have a best practices guide.

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

Also the gwtquery discussion groups on Google seems to be dead and gwtquery.com leads to a weird money making ad site.

Do we have an active discussion group ?

christiangoudreau commented 9 years ago

Uh what? @manolo Did we forgot to pay the domain? LOL

@deba you can take a look at GWT-Platform for "best practices" :D

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

@christiangoudreau thanks... but I am keen to know if we should use gwtquery alone or alongwith an MVP framework in place or both approaches are ok ? any pointers shall be helpful.

And thanks for looking into gwtquery.com domain issue

Pacane commented 9 years ago

@christiangoudreau About the domain, it's been like this for several months now. I didn't even think it was our domain. (I've never seen gwtquery.com working in about a year)

jDramaix commented 9 years ago

The domain name is gwtquery.org

hmm... a bit unfortunate. Since on Google plus we have a page named gwtQuery https://plus.google.com/u/1/108775699626209449984/posts that highlights gwtquery related posts and links to the said ad infested domain. such a great framework would suffer from this.

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

My question still remains open.

Should I use gwtquery alone or

is it recommended to be used along with an MVP framework ?

Please help.

Pacane commented 9 years ago

We use GWTQuery with GWTP and it works just fine. (Can't tell about Mvp4g)

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

No problems. thanks a ton. I needed to clarify if I should/could use an MVP framework alongside. Will evaluate and post a link.

Which is the most active place for discussions on gwtQuery ? The Google groups seems a bit dead and I will sweat overloading the github issues.

Pacane commented 9 years ago

Either Github, G+ or Stackoverflow seems good to me.

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

thanks.

I will try to work on a best practices guide and post a link if you folks can help me out a bit.. for now I think this issue is a valid one so I leave it to you if you would like to keep it open or closed.

thanks a ton for such prompt interactions.

To expends a little more, gQuery as a totally different purpose than GWTP. GWTP target is code organization around the MVP pattern on top of giving you utilities to be more productive as a developer.

gQuery can do a lot, but most its functionality replicates jQuery and is mostly used in view to manipulate the DOM structure.

We don't own the .com, that's right! We own the .org!

aino-gautam commented 9 years ago

thanks @christiangoudreau. all the responses are highly appreciated. I hope to be able to contribute soon to your efforts.

I've posted a quick best practices at stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26965902/gwtquery-best-practice/26972499#26972499

I'll pick up all those ideas and any other suggestion for my slides in the GWT.create 2015.

manolo commented 9 years ago

BTW gwtquery.com was owned by Ray's company when he started the project, it expired and a domain hunter took it, so we registered gquery.org instead.
