Supported components

Mateu provides a rich set of UI components through its declarative and fluent models.

Layouts

• VerticalLayout
• HorizontalLayout
• FormLayout
• SplitLayout
• TabLayout
• Accordion
• Board (planned / evolving)
• Master-detail

Form elements

• text fields
• numbers
• dates
• checkboxes
• selects / comboboxes
• textareas
• rich text
• sliders
• toggles

These are usually inferred from field types and @Stereotype.

Advanced components

From the component model, Mateu also supports:

• master-detail layouts
• scrollers
• containers
• grid/table representations
• composite layouts

Fluent components

When using the fluent API, you can explicitly build:

new VerticalLayout(
  new Text("Hello"),
  new Button("Click", () -> {})
);

Mental model

• declarative → inferred components
• fluent → explicit component tree
• both → same rendering engine

Why this matters

You get:

• high-level abstraction by default
• low-level control when needed
