javascript-polymerHow can I use Vaadin, Polymer, and JavaScript together to create a web application?


Vaadin, Polymer, and JavaScript can be used together to create a web application. Vaadin is a Java-based web framework that allows developers to create web applications using Java and HTML. Polymer is a JavaScript library that allows developers to create custom HTML elements. JavaScript is a scripting language that can be used to create interactive web applications.

The following example code shows how to use Vaadin, Polymer, and JavaScript together to create a web application.

<div id="app">
  <vaadin-button on-click="myFunction()">Click Me</vaadin-button>
</div>

<script>
  function myFunction() {
    // create custom element using Polymer
    var myElement = document.createElement('my-element');

    // add custom element to the DOM
    document.getElementById('app').appendChild(myElement);
  }
</script>

In this example, a Vaadin button is created and when clicked, a custom element is created using Polymer and added to the DOM using JavaScript.

Code explanation

  • <div id="app"> - creates a div element with an id of app
  • <vaadin-button on-click="myFunction()">Click Me</Vaadin-button> - creates a Vaadin button with an on-click event handler that calls the myFunction() function
  • function myFunction() - creates a function named myFunction()
  • var myElement = document.createElement('my-element'); - creates a custom element using Polymer
  • document.getElementById('app').appendChild(myElement); - adds the custom element to the DOM
