Hello,
If I don't make mistakes, with common theme (thanks to Nicolas for
that), we don't need to 'define' a new technology. We don't need to
choose bootstrap or vaadin.
We only need one thing, we need somebody to make a new theme. If this
theme is using vaading, we wil see the power behind it.
My 2 cents,
Julien.

Users/developers,
I would like to present an alternative UI which can be generated from
the existing OFBiz screens and forms but can also be used independently.
What is Vaadin: https://vaadin.com/introduction
Vaadin has the Apache 2.0 license.
We have now completed a proof of concept which can display Vaadin
screens in Java generated from OFBiz screens and forms using the
existing ftl macro file which currently generates html but now for a
very limited number of screen elements can generate also Vaadin Java
screen files.
To demonstrate this in a component which can be either installed in
the OFBiz trunk or in V16 can be cloned from our git repository at:
https://gerrit.antwebsystems.com/#/admin/projects/vaadin-test
Check the readme file for installation notes.
To save you the installation we have also a demo system:
Ofbiz screen and form:
https://vaadin-test.growerpdemo.com/vaadin-test/control/ofbiz/main
Generated Vaadim screen:
https://vaadin-test.growerpdemo.com/vaadin-test/control/ofbiz/#!TestView
We would like to know from the community:
1. Technical opinion about this proof of concept implementation.
2. Is this something to be included in the OFBiz trunk as alternative UI?
3. Are there developers who like to work together to extend this
implementation:
a. cover all screen elements
b. use Groovy instead of Java.
Looking forward to your replies,
Regards,
