Modern Web Development with Java and Vaadin - From Fundamentals to Pro
summary
Shows how to build rich web UIs entirely in Java with Vaadin, starting from a one-class Hello World that uses server-side event handling and boots on Spring or Quarkus via a Maven plugin; explains component internals (server API + client-side TypeScript), using npm web components and a Lottie player integration, and publishing reusable widgets to the Vaadin Directory (~2,000 community components). Recommends architecture patterns, testing with Selenium/Playwright and Gatling, and claims high scale from a historical two-machine load test.
