-= Overview
-
-Vaadin components consist of two parts: a server-side and a client-side
-component. The latter are also called __widgets__ in Google Web Toolkit (GWT)
-parlance. A Vaadin application uses the API of the server-side component, which
-is rendered as a client-side widget in the browser. As on the server-side, the
-client-side widgets form a hierarchy of layout widgets and regular widgets as
-the leaves.

-.Integration of Client-Side Widgets
-image::img/widget-integration-hi.png[]
-
-The communication between a client-side widget and a server-side component is
-managed with a __connector__ that handles syncronizing the widget state and
-events to and from the server-side.
-((("connector")))
-
-When rendering the user interface, a client-side connector and a widget are
-created for each server-side component. The mapping from a component to a
-connector is defined in the connector class with a [literal]#++@Connect++#
-annotation, and the widget is created by the connector class.
-((("@Connect")))
-
-The state of a server-side component is synchronized automatically to the
-client-side widget using a __shared state__ object. A shared state object
-extends [classname]#AbstractComponentState# and it is used both in the
-server-side and the client-side component. On the client-side, a connector
-always has access to its state instance, as well to the state of its parent
-component state and the states of its children. ((("state
-object")))
-((("[classname]#AbstractComponentState#")))
-
-The state sharing assumes that state is defined with standard Java types, such
-as primitive and boxed primitive types, [classname]#String#, arrays, and certain
-collections ( [classname]#List#, [classname]#Set#, and [classname]#Map#) of the
-supported types. Also the Vaadin [classname]#Connector# and some special
-internal types can be shared.
-
-In addition to state, both server- and client-side can make remote procedure
-calls (RPC) to the other side. RPC is used foremost for event notifications. For
-example, when a client-side connector of a button receives a click, it sends the
-event to the server-side using RPC.

-== Project Structure
-
-Widget set compilation, as described in
-<<dummy/../../../framework/clientside/clientside-module#clientside.module,"Client-Side
-Module Descriptor">>, requires using a special project structure, where the
-client-side classes are located under a [filename]#client# package under the
-package of the module descriptor. Any static resources, such as stylesheets and
-images, should be located under a [filename]#public# folder (not Java package).
-The source for the server-side component may be located anywhere, except not in
-the client-side package.
-
-The basic project structure is illustrated in <<figure.gwt.overview.project>>.

-.Basic Widget Integration Project Structure
-image::img/gwt-widget-files-hi.png[]
-
-The Eclipse wizard, described in
-<<dummy/../../../framework/gwt/gwt-eclipse#gwt.eclipse,"Starting It Simple With
-Eclipse">>, creates a widget integration skeleton with the above structure.

-== Integrating JavaScript Components
-
-In addition to the GWT widget integration, Vaadin offers a simplified way to
-integrate pure JavaScript components. The JavaScript connector code is published
-from the server-side. As the JavaScript integration does not involve GWT
-programming, no widget set compilation is needed.
-((("JavaScript")))
