Vaadin offers a tool for easily generating web app projects, available at start.vaadin.com.

We’ve received user feedback that the UI was a bit too overwhelming, especially for new users. We set out to simplify the getting started experience, and to clean up the UI.

This was a joint effort between me and Joacim (https://dribbble.com/anezthes)

We produced a number of prototypes in Figma, to get a good feel how the UI improvements could work in practice.

Some of these changes, that we suggested based on these prototypes, are already being implemented, and we’ll keep iterating on it in the future as well.

See the previous shot regarding the view templates that we ideated – the “Dashboard” mockup was used in this shot: https://dribbble.com/shots/14039494-start-vaadin-com-view-templates
