So i have been looking into GWT and it does look pretty interesting as i do have experience in programming in java and being able to create webapps does look very interesting to me.
I have looked at some of the basic tutorials and have got GWT working in my eclipse environment. Now, If i was to begin creating webapps with it how would i go about uploading and hosting my app. I have only used PHP and MySQL for web development so i would always just use Apache, I am not to sure about GWT hosting. Does it require the app to be hosted on googles App Engine platform or can I setup a server like to usually do when using Apache?
Thanks.

Go to the App Engine dashboard on the Google Cloud Platform Console and press the Create button. If you've not created a project before, you'll need to select whether you want to receive email updates or not, agree to the Terms of Service, and then you should be able to continue.
Using GWT does not require you to host your app on App Engine. You can host a GWT app on any host.
If you want your server to be written in Java, to take advantage of some of the more useful features of GWT, you will obviously need to find a host that allows you to run Java. But you can write a GWT app that communicates with a PHP server, or a Python server, or anything else.
