A UI is a part of the web page in which the -Vaadin application runs. An application can have multiple UIs in the same page, -especially in portals, or in different windows or tabs. A UI is associated with -a user session, and a session is created for each user who uses the application. -In the context of our Hello World UI, it is sufficient to know that the -underlying session is created when the user first accesses the application by -opening the page, and the [methodname]#init()# method is invoked at that time. - -The page title, which is shown in the caption of the browser window or tab, is -defined with an annotation. The example uses a layout component as the root -content of the UI, as that is the case with most Vaadin applications, which -normally have more than one component. It then creates a new [classname]#Label# -user interface component, which displays simple text, and sets the text to -"Hello World!". The label is added to the layout. - -The example also shows how to create a button and handle button click events. -Event handling is described in -<<dummy/../../../framework/architecture/architecture-events#architecture.events,"Events -and Listeners">> and on the practical side in -<<dummy/../../../framework/application/application-events#application.events,"Handling -Events with Listeners">>. In addition to listeners, in Java 8 you can handle -events with lambda expressions, which simplifies the handler code significantly. - - -[source, java] ----- -content.addComponent(new Button("Push Me!", - event -> Notification.show("Pushed!"))); ----- - -The result of the Hello World application, when opened in a browser, is shown in -<<figure.intro.walkthrough>>. - -[[figure.intro.walkthrough]] -.Hello World Application -image::img/HelloWorld.png[] - -To run a program, you need to package it as a web application WAR package and -deploy it to a server, as explained in -<<dummy/../../../framework/application/application-environment#application.environment,"Deploying -an Application">>. During development, you typically deploy to an application -server integrated with the IDE. - -Developing a pure client-side application, you could write a Hello World just as -easily, and also in Java: - - -[source, java] ----- -public class HelloWorld implements EntryPoint { - @Override - public void onModuleLoad() { - RootPanel.get().add(new Label("Hello, world!")); - } -} ----- - -We do not set the title here, because it is usually defined in the HTML page in -which the code is executed. The application would be compiled into JavaScript -with the Vaadin Client Compiler (or GWT Compiler). It is more typical, however, -to write client-side widgets, which you can then use from a server-side Vaadin -application.
