How to build your first Vaadin CDI application Create a project using archetype Now we can use CDI to clean our UI code easily with the TomEE based Java EE 7 runtime and also use Java 8 in the app. Naturally, you can customize the whole execution environment if you use CloudFoundry buildpacks, but for the sake of simplicity we’ll be using the standard Java EE 7 runtime provided by SAP Cloud Platform in this tutorial. At that time I had some issues with Vaadin CDI and CloudPlatform, but many things has improved since. It will give you an overview of Vaadin development and a basis for further experiments.Ī couple of years ago I already prepared a Vaadin + SAP HANA example, based on the official Java example by SAP. This tutorial shows how to get started with Vaadin and how to use CDI to bind into your existing Java service, that you might already be running on SAP Cloud Platform. Vaadin Framework is an Apache 2.0 licensed open source library for exactly those developers. There are many Java developers who’d love to build web apps, but hesitate to start as web development usually contains lot of different programming languages (Java, HTML, CSS, JavaScript), complex client-server development model and buggy browser environment.
