Vaadin and Jakarta EE: training and networking events at Zero11

Zero11 recently hosted an event dedicated to Java developers interested in modern web development, in collaboration with JUG Torino. During the session, we explored innovative tools and techniques to create advanced web interfaces.

We are now excited to announce that on November 12 a second event will take place, focusing on the integration of artificial intelligence with Jakarta EE, open to all enthusiasts and professionals in the field.

Modern Web Development with Java: Vaadin 24 in Practice

On October 23, we welcomed participants to our offices for an event centered on Vaadin 24, a framework that enables modern web application development entirely in Java, without the need for additional languages or frameworks. This solution is particularly interesting for Java developers eager to explore new possibilities in web development.

Topics Covered

The event offered an in-depth introduction to the latest features of Vaadin 24:

• Advanced UI Components: participants discovered how to leverage Vaadin’s graphical components and data binding tools to create dynamic and user-friendly interfaces.
• Secure Server-Side Architecture: Vaadin’s architecture ensures secure communication and optimal state synchronization, providing stability for applications.
• Integration with External APIs and Components: the session showed how to enhance applications by integrating third-party libraries and additional components.

Speaker: the session was led by Sami, a founding member of the Vaadin team and an open-source technology enthusiast. Sami shared his extensive experience in developing web applications and reusable components, inspiring participants to unlock the potential of Vaadin for building captivating web applications using their existing Java skills.
