summary
Claims a full SPA stack is unnecessary for data-centric apps and shows a working migration of an Oracle Forms ERP with 800 forms, 2,000 tables and ~5,000 PL/SQL units to a server-driven UI built with Vaadin Flow and jOOQ. The frontend is stored as configurable UI metadata in the DB, rendered at runtime per user, uses Vaadin web components, lazy data providers, push and testing via Caribou/TestBench, and reports about 8,000 generated classes from the schema.
