Warning: the contents in this tempate are deprected, and will soon be replaced by a much different structure. Volo and several other things will be removed to offer a simpler and more extensible template.
This template comes with a new layouts library that lets you create apps quickly, and initial HTML and javascript that defines a list/detail application.
It is part of the mortar template collection for building Open Web Apps.
The layouts library is called mortar-layouts, and you can read more about it in the project page. It uses backbone.js to provide a powerful yet minimal application UI framework.
Check out what the template is by default.
There are a few ways to get this template:
- git clone git://github.com/mozilla/mortar-list-detail.git myapp
- volo create myapp mozilla/mortar-list-detail
If you have node installed, you can run a development server with volo:
- cd myapp
- volo serve
View the list/detail app at http://localhost:8008/.
You'll probably want to change how this template works to build your app. The meat of this template is in the mortar-layouts library, which this uses to construct a UI powered by backbone.js. You should read the documentation in the mortar-layouts project.
