New and Noteworthy Since Hilla 24.4

TypeScript Generation Enhancements

Support for using generic types was added to the Hilla browser callable endpoints generator. Better code structure and easy data definition reuse between entities is now possible by extracting generic base classes, which are now preserved as generic also in the generated TypeScript code.

At the same time, Hilla generator has received support for Jackson's @JsonValue & @JsonCreator Java annotations. This enables using domain primitives in Java and other customisations of JSON representation for Java classes.

Using JsonNode type and its subclasses in browser callable endpoints was enabled, which allows sending and receiving raw JSON data with Hilla browser callable endpoints.

Hilla generator now supports ZonedDateTime and OffsetDateTime commonly used Java date and time types.

Using Arrays in React Forms

Creating repeated form parts for array data types, for example, with the user-provided number of items, was simplified with the new useFormArrayPart hook to the Hilla React form library.

Flow Layout Support

The integration between Hilla and Flow as parts of a single Vaadin Unified Platform application was improved with added support for layout parents defined with Flow to the Hilla file-system router. This further simplifies creating hybrid applications using both Flow and Hilla.

Experimental Full-Stack Signals

The limited support for browser callable services that return a signal shared between the client and the server was added to Hilla. This enables sharing data with live updates and real-time collaboration with a simple API. Only Number and arbitrary JSON value data types are supported. Note that this feature is experimental and not yet ready for production use.
