Working with non-standard directory structure

[Dominator008]

Does the module description have to be "src/main/module.gwt.xml"? Can I get this plugin to work with a handwritten .gwt.xml file in an arbitrary location?

Explained in the migration guide just add <skipModule>true</skipModule> to disable the gwt:generate-module goal and point moduleName to your handwritten module. For example https://github.com/ibaca/rxjava-gwt/blob/master/pom.xml#L82

And if you want to benefit from gwt:generate-module but put your module file somewhere else, you can set moduleTemplate (be careful if you set moduleTemplate somewhere in your src/main/java or src/main/resources, resources:resources is likely to overwrite the generated file so you'll have to declare an explicit <resource> that <excludes> it.

Thanks, moduleTemplate seems to work.
Another question: can you include an arbitrary .html page in the compiled .war archive? Right now it only consists of the compiled .js file, but not the .html file under public/.
My use case is here:
