Building administration screens to manage data required by your application can be tedious work. Administration screens and programs are often thought of late in the delivery cycle and rushing them tends to result in featureless screens that just barely get the job done.
Open Admin is a soon to be released component of the <a href="http://www.broadleafcommerce.org">Broadleaf Commerce framework.</a>. It grew out of necessity as we needed complex catalog, customer, and order administration screens to round out the framework.
Open Admin is based on Spring, Smart-GWT, and JPA(Hibernate). It allows for rich, functional administration programs to be developed mainly through configuration and annotation of a JPA based model.
This session will briefly describe the underlying technologies and walk through examples demonstrating how the technology can help you to build awesome administration components.
If your already using JPA you'll be able to build awesome administration capabilities on the model with very low effort.
