 - `addTimerEndEvent` is deprecated in favor of `addTimerEndListener`.
 - `addCurrentTimeChangeListener` is deprecated in favor of `addTickListener`.
 - The web component no longer depends on Polymer, and no longer exposes the `startTime`, `endTime`, `countUp` and `isRunning` properties, nor the `start`, `pause` and `ready` functions.

+## Special configuration when using Spring
+
+By default, Vaadin Flow only includes `com/vaadin/flow/component` to be always scanned for UI components and views. For this reason, the add-on might need to be allowed in order to display correctly. 
+
+To do so, just add `com.flowingcode` to the `vaadin.allowed-packages` property in `src/main/resources/application.properties`, like:
+
+```
+vaadin.allowed-packages = com.vaadin,org.vaadin,dev.hilla,com.flowingcode
+```
+ 
+More information on Spring scanning configuration [here](https://vaadin.com/docs/latest/integrations/spring/configuration/#configure-the-scanning-of-packages).
