To run the spring boot app with GWT in devmode you need to run the following commands: mvn spring-boot:run and in a different window mvn gwt:devmode -Pgwt-dev. If you don't need to you use GWT devmode and you need to run or package the application you can use the gwt-prod profile. For example: mvn package -Pgwt:prod.
