Project example for implementing localization in a Vaadin Flow application

This example application demonstrates implementing internationalization and localization in a Vaadin Spring Boot project. Locales supported are English, Finnish and French.

Among the classes under the com.vaadin.example package

• Application.java is responsible for running the application

Resource bundles with the name labelsbundle, which contain the actual translations, are located under the /resources folder.
