How to write vaadin dynamic grid

Question

Does anybody know how to build a dynamic vaadin grid like here: https://cdn.vaadin.com/vaadin-grid/2.0.0-alpha3/demo/data.html#dynamic-height

It is strange because I have never seen that vaadin allow to write code as it is in the link above. Where to put this template? Is it possible that in a standard vaadin code?

Since Vaadin Grid relies on JavaBean, I think you should check out the apache commons BeanUtils. It has features such as DynaBean and DynaClass which are amazingly creates dynamic JavaBean. Then you can put the Beans on a list and grid.setItems(theList). Well, I haven't tried this for real. So, good luck and happy research! — slash.mnt, Jul 30 '18 at 17:09

This is the demo page for Vaadin Grid Element, not the Grid from Vaadin Framework.

Grid element is a part of so-called Vaadin Elements - set of client-side widgets which can be used from other javascript frameworks (e.g. React, Angular, etc.).

Vaadin released Elements separately from their Framework, so in order to use them from a traditional Vaadin application, you'll need to take additional steps. See this blog post for the detailed walkthrough: Using Vaadin Elements with Vaadin Framework.
