Q: 

Using Vaadin (Java) UI Framework inside Python

What would be the best way to use Vaadin within Python/Django applications? I will be more than satisfied with having access to components/widgets, if the whole UI framework cannot be exposed to me directly.

I am aware of Jython, but I am still not sure if it's the way to go about Vaadin in a Python web application. Any positive input/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

+1  A: 

Details how to embed a Vaadin app to a web page (made with eg. Django) can be found in the Book of Vaadin. Jython is the way to go if you want to run Python scripts in the server side app, but as far as I see it that's not what you are looking for here.

I should have said that I have read the Book of Vaadin already. it does not document integration with Python that well. Thanks for the suggestion anyways!

The two techniques presented in the book (div and iframe) should work regardless of how the surrounding web page has been built, Django or not.
