Getting Started with Vaadin 11

The best way to get started with Vaadin 11 is to go to https://vaadin.com/start and pick an app template for the technology stack you’re interested in. There are two types of app templates available.

The Project Bases are for starting your project from scratch with only the necessary dependencies and a couple of placeholder files available.

There are also full application examples available like Bakery (Pro) and Beverage Buddy. Those show you some opinionated examples on how to build different types of applications, with optionally integrating to a backend.

Getting Started Manually

For frontend projects you can get the dependencies with Bower by running bower install vaadin or bower install vaadin-core.

For Java projects, an example of the necessary setup can be found from the Project Base.

Reporting Issues

We appreciate if you try to find the most relevant repository to report the issue in. If it is not obvious which project to add issues to, you are always welcome to report any issue at https://github.com/vaadin/platform/issues.

A few rules of thumb will help you and us in finding the correct repository for the issue:
