Hilla 24.4.0

Website · Getting Started · Documentation

New and Noteworthy Since Hilla 2.5

Hilla File Router

The file-system based router, @vaadin/hilla-file-router, was added to Hilla. It simplifies adding React views to applications by automaticaly mapping files in the src/main/frontend/views/ directory as routes, eliminating the step of editing the URL mapping for each added view. The Hilla file router is based on the React Router library.

Automatic Main Menu

The file router includes the createMenuItems() utility function, which enables populating the menu items in the React main layout. Hilla file router views and Java classes with the @Menu annotation are added as the menu items automatically.

Hilla React Signals

The new library for managing state in React applications, @vaadin/hilla-react-signals, was added to Hilla. Signals provide robust and convenient way of subscribing to state updates in UI, and allow to easily share the state updates between multiple components. The API of Hilla React signals follows the Preact Signals library.

Unified Vaadin Platform

Hilla framework has been more closely integrated with the Vaadin platform. Vaadin BOM and Vaadin Spring Boot Starter now include the Hilla framework stating from version 24.4. This enables Vaadin users to choose between Flow and Hilla, or mix both frameworks when necessary.

Frontend Source Directory

The default location of the frontend source directory was changed from frontend/ to src/main/frontend/. The old location is still supported.

Breaking Changes

• Java namespace was changed from dev.hilla to com.vaadin.hilla
• npm packages were renamed as follows:
  • @hilla/react-components are now @vaadin/react-components,
  • @hilla/form became @vaadin/hilla-lit-form,
  • other packages from the @hilla/ namespace now have the @vaadin/hilla- name prefix
• Maven groupId for Hilla artifacts was changed from dev.hilla to com.vaadin.
• dev.hilla:hilla-spring-boot-starter was superseded by com.vaadin:vaadin-spring-boot-starter.
• Hilla versioning is aligned with the Vaadin platform one.
• Automatic navigation using page reload after successful server response was introduced in the login() and logout() Hilla authentication methods. This might interfere with custom handling of successful authentication response.

Notable Changes Since v2.5.7

• feat: Use count for scrolling size, if available by @Artur- in #1473
• fix: Avoid using decorators by @Artur- in #1891
• fix: make init-app goal generate sources coherent with the project Hilla version by @cromoteca in #1901
