Tired of creating the same boilerplate code over and over for simple CRUD-based admin panels? Broadleaf Open Admin generates an entire UI/UX admin for your JPA entities based solely on annotations. Need user security or the ability to integrate with existing user authentication providers (like LDAP)? Broadleaf Open Admin comes with a robust security model out of the box and the ability to swap out different security providers by leveraging Spring Security. Want to customize the generated UI or add more features? Broadleaf Open Admin is open source and utilizes the Spring Framework which allows for limitless extension and customization options.
This talk is split into 3 parts:
- Overview of the provided annotation library and basic security features
- Live demo of building a brand new admin interface from the ground up using the annotation library
- Live demo implementation of some of the provided extension points in the generated admin panel (e.g. interact with another backend system, build a new log management page without annotations)
