Some nice CSS simplifications in Vaadin 25: CSS is just CSS now, no need for any Vaadin specific theme config. New Aura theme. Automatic light/dark color scheme support.

Ever wondered how Quarkus builds its Dev UI? Itโs Vaadin under the hood โ and itโs actually great for building your own apps too. I wrote a full hands-on tutorial showing how to build a clean task manager UI using
#Vaadin
Flow +
#Quarkus
, all in pure
#Java
. Zero JavaScript drama.

Judge me. Iโve been using Spring Boot with Vaadin to build a typical reactive web app, sort of thing React gets used for. I like it, it feels way more solid than flaky JS and bundling. Also does hotswap and is of course statically typed (as all good languages are). Iโm smitten.
