BeanGrid Annotations is a stand alone library used by the BeanGrid Add-on for Vaadin 8 to determine annotations used for describing the Vaadin Grid's columns. This add-on is not intended to be used alone but together with BeanGrid Add-on as a dependency of BeanGrid add-on. The reason why the annotations have been released separately is that they could be used without direct dependencies to Spring or Vaadin already at backend or data transfer projects / modules.
