Integrations
You can integrate Vaadin with many other Java application technologies, such as Spring, CDI, OSGi, and Karaf.
You can also embed Vaadin applications/components in other applications or web pages.
- Spring
- Spring is part of the recommended toolchain, and in fact Vaadin applications are by default Spring Boot applications.
- CDI
- Contexts and dependency injection (CDI) is a framework for injecting dependency objects in different contexts. It's part of the Java EE platform, but its purpose is similar to autowiring in Spring.
- Embedding
- In addition to running Vaadin as an application in a web page, you can embed it in a web page which could be part of some other application.
- OSGi
- OSGi is an open source specification that describes a modular system and a dynamic service platform for Java. Application and component bundles can be remotely installed, started, stopped, updated, and uninstalled without requiring a reboot.
- Quarkus
- Quarkus is an open source, Kubernetes-native Java framework made for Java virtual machines and native compilation. It optimizes Java specifically for containers, enabling it to become an effective platform for serverless, cloud, and Kubernetes environments.
- Portlet Support
- Portlet is a technology for building web components to be placed on Web Portals. Vaadin provides the API to create a UI to be visible in Portlets in the same way as for a Vaadin Servlet-based application.
- Databases
- Using a database in Vaadin applications
