4 Compilation

The plugin will automatically compile your GWT modules the first time that you perform a normal Grails compile, for example via grails compile or grails run-app . Once a module has been compiled, however, it will not be compiled again in development mode.

So, if you want to test the latest changes in development with a normal browser, you can manually compile the GWT modules with this command:
