## Usage Avatar is a visual identifier that represents a user by showing an image or a name abbreviation (in case an image is not set). A tooltip (enabled by default) can be enabled or disabled to display the name of the avatar when hovering on top of it. The abbreviation is generated from the Avatar's name initials. E.g. "John Smith" becomes "JS". ### Client-side implementation This is the server-side (Java) API for Vaadin Platform for the Avatar component. Looking for the client-side version?
