Describe your motivation
In the age of AI agentic development there should be a quick method to start the project, preferably from command line. One convenient way to do this is maven archetype. We used to have these for Vaadin 8. My experience with agents is that if they try to build pom.xml from the scratch, they tend to fail often, or iterate very long.
I have tried small AI agentic experiments with Vaadin 8 archetype explicitly stating that in specs, and that works very well.
Archetypes allow easy start using any specific Vaadin version.
Describe the solution you'd like
Set of archetypes for most typical project scenarios
- Simple single module add-on project / demo in test scope
- Multimodule add-on project with separate demo module
- Single module Spring Boot application project
- Multi-module Spring Boot application project
- Single module application project without Spring
- Multi-module application project without Spring
Consider adding more archetypes based on demand
Publish use archetype skill / MCP so that AI will likely use archetype approach automatically.
