Lift Framework vs Vaadin: What are the differences?
What is Lift Framework? The most powerful, most secure web framework available today. Lift creates abstractions that allow easier expression of business logic and then maps those abstractions to HTTP and HTML. This approach differs from traditional web frameworks which build abstractions on top of HTTP and HTML and require the developer to bridge between common business logic patterns and the underlying protocol.
What is Vaadin? Components and tools for building web apps in Java. It is the fastest way to build web applications in Java. It automates the communication between your server and the browser and gives you a high-level component API for all Vaadin components.
Lift Framework and Vaadin can be categorized as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.
