Vaadin
Open-source full-stack Java UI framework for building web applications.
vaadin.comrepositorydocspricingplugins
Vaadin is an open-source full-stack Java UI framework. In its Flow views the UI state lives on the server, while a React view runs in the browser. Vaadin Start and Spring Initializr create Spring Boot projects, which run as a Java application rather than in a servlet container.
Worth knowing
The licensing and maintenance page says commercial subscriptions add to the open source core. The Pro plan adds commercial components such as Charts, Dashboard, Map, CRUD and Grid Pro. The Enterprise Edition offers long-term maintenance per major release, and Copilot and the hosted MCP server are not open source.
