Vaadin is a web application framework for Rich Internet Applications (RIA). Vaadin enables easy development and maintenance of fast and secure rich web applications with a stunning look and feel and a wide browser support. It features a server-side architecture with the majority of the logic running on the server. Ajax technology is used at the browser-side to ensure a rich and interactive user experience.

There is a newer version: 8.25.2
