In my Vaadin8 app, I'd like the UI to alternate between two labels. That is to say, in the same spot on the screen, show a label for 5 seconds and then switch to the other one, show that for another 5 secs, switch back and so on. What would be a good way to implement this?

If the data to be shown is static, i.e. just two alternating values of label, then the best option is to implement this as custom component. As this is quite simple case for such, I made it and published in Vaadin's Direcotry
https://vaadin.com/directory/component/switchinglabel
The source code is in GitHub repository here

Another alternative would be to have timed thread and use Push to set new value of Label periodically.
