GWT WORKS. I use 2.8 and I don't see reason to upgrade or switch.
GWT is for large projects. You can use your widgets and GWT will provide
structure and tooling.

Re: Is GWT 3.0 /GWT 2.9 dead?

[Luis Fernando Planella Gonzalez]

It has always been said that GWT is active when similar questions are asked 
in the forum.
However, given that the last version, 2.8.2, was released on Oct 19, 2017 
and was a bugfix for the 2.8.0 version, released on Oct 20, 2016, I can't 
see it as "active".
At least it smells bad!
Even the 1.0 release of Elemental can't be used, because it requires newer 
components than the pre-packaged version.
It is a sad thing, because I work on a large project using GWT since its 
1.5.0 version, and our project is actively developed and still evolving.
I hope GWT 2.9 is out "soon", because we're planning to switch to Java 11 
in the coming months, and it would be a burden to maintain a separated Java 
version only for the frontend part (been there, done that with Java 8).
The fact is that since Google left the project, things are way too slow.
Understandable, as it is based on best effor from the brave developers, but 
still disheartening.
Still, I don't loose hope that GWT will be still maintained.
