-= Overview

-Vaadin supports running UIs as portlets in a portal, as defined in the JSR-286
-(Java Portlet API 2.0) standard. A portlet UI is defined just as a regular UI,
-but deploying to a portal is somewhat different from deployment of regular web
-applications, requiring special portlet descriptors, etc. Creating the portlet
-project with the Vaadin Plugin for Eclipse or a Maven archetype automatically
-generates the necessary descriptors.
-
-In addition to providing user interface through the Vaadin UI, portlets can
-integrate with the portal to switch between portlet modes and process special
-portal requests, such as actions and events.
-
-While providing generic support for all portals implementing the standard,
-Vaadin especially supports the Liferay portal and the needed portal-specific
-configuration in this chapter is given for Liferay. Vaadin also has a special
-Liferay IPC add-on to enable communication between portlets.
