It involves -__widgets__ for representing the user interface as Java objects, which are -rendered as a HTML DOM in the browser. Events caused by user interaction with -the page are delegated to event handlers, where you can implement your UI logic. - -In general, the client-side widgets come in two categories - basic GWT widgets -and Vaadin-specific widgets. The library includes __connectors__ for integrating -the Vaadin-specific widgets with the server-side components, thereby enabling -the server-side development model of Vaadin. The integration is described in -<<dummy/../../../framework/gwt/gwt-overview.asciidoc#gwt.overview,"Integrating -with the Server-Side">>. - -The layout of the client-side UI is managed with __panel__ widgets, which -correspond in their function with layout components in the Vaadin server-side -API. - -In addition to the rendering API, the client-side API includes facilities for -making HTTP requests, logging, accessibility, internationalization, and testing. - -For information about the basic GWT framework, please refer to -https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/overview. - - - |
