You are going to learn how to create and configure Grails application with Vaadin plugin in this chapter.

There are two libraries that add support for development of Vaadin applications in Grails.

  • com.vaadinongrails:grails-vaadin-plugin adds all required jars on classpath and makes it possible to run Vaadin application instead of Grails .gsp files.

  • com.vaadinongrails:vaadin-gradle-plugin provides support for development of Vaadin applications. This plugin adds new tasks:

    • vaadin-quickstart generates boilerplate Vaadin project

    • vaadin-spring-quickstart generates boilerplate Vaadin project with Spring support

    • vaadin-compile-sass compiles SASS into CSS

    • vaadin-compile-widgetset compiles Widgetset
