Vaadin + Spring-MVC + Spring-Boot

The sample project shows how to run a vaadin application with multiple UIs in combination with the good old spring web mvc. The spring web sevlet uses Thymeleaf and templates to render the HTML output. It can be started simply as a standalone application that already contains its own web server. (Thanks to spring-boot, that was long overdue!)
