Experiments

Create a "New Jelly style DOM generated component"

Effort:

• "Path browser" component that was originally developed for JOC was refactored into a reusable component
• Mostly removed JOC-ness in the control and generalized it
• Make sure there's no loss of functionality
• Remove any remaining JOC-ness in the control.
• Import JavaScript libraries through adjunct framework instead of bundling it locally

Result:

• Proved that it is feasible to create such components
• Designing reusable component requires a help from a Java guy

Open questions:

• Can we maintain backward compatibility with reasonable effort? What if libraries upgrade?
• Any easy tests that can be written?

Client-side MVC framework

TBD
