IntelliJ Vaadin plugin out of sync?

maneesh2 · November 26, 2025, 3:05am

In my IntelliJ CE, if I use the Vaadin plugin to create a new project, the default pom has

 <properties>
        <java.version>21</java.version>
        <vaadin.version>24.7.0</vaadin.version>
    </properties>

    <parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>3.4.3</version>
    </parent>

However, if I create and download a project from https://start.vaadin.com/ the default pom has the latest vaadin + dependency version

<properties>
        <java.version>21</java.version>
        <vaadin.version>24.9.5</vaadin.version>
    </properties>
    
    <parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>3.5.7</version>
        <relativePath/>
    </parent>

Is this intentional or a bug?
PS: I have ensured my IDE+plugin are uptodate.

Hi, thanks for reporting. Both are using same endpoint to create new projects. There are two base projects we are using:

Both have the same Vaadin version.

I have just downloaded both (stable), and Vaadin version is the same on both.

Issue located, endpoint is serving wrong version, not a plugin issue. Fix in progress… thank you for reporting!

Changes have been deployed. Now vaadin version in pom.xml is the same. Thank you for the issue!
