[Users] Using Sencha Cmd to build an app which includes GeoExt2 & OpenLayers (Marc Jansen)

[Purdon]

Marc,

Thank you for the notes. I have actually got it to work with the new Sencha
Cmd but in what seems like a rather "hacky" method. By adding the GeoExt2
source path to sencha.cfg in a project generated by Sencha generate app I
was able to build. This of course did not include openlayers which from
what I can tell just needs to be built separately and either merged with
the app.js or included in index.html (easy enough).

While I really have no idea if this is the correct method or best practice,
it works. With no documentation or examples to guide me I guess best
practice is whatever I come up with that gets a working product on the
table!

I'd love to help out in any way I can getting something like this
documented somewhere (all my source is on GitHub) so keep in contact if you
ever want to work on a project to document this sort of thing.
