acephalous

An API first distribution and a responsive Angular Single Page App using Angular material.

Acephalous provides an Angular front-end and an API first Drupal back-end. Routing has been made simpler here by using the same routes from Drupal rather than re-inventing the wheel. Routing takes place in the Routing component in the Angular Single Page App.

The purpose of this distribution is to create a fast, secure and small front end application while keeping all the Drupal 8 goodness like SEO, responsive images, routing, multilingual, easy content authoring, views. Basically Drupal acts like an smart content source and a JavaScript framework renders it.

Development server

Run ng serve from the ng folder for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files. Run lando start from the drupal folder for a drupal dev server. When installing, select acephalous installation and you will get dummy content and it will immediately appear on the angular side.

TODO

  1. Add support for views' routes.
  2. Automates tests
  3. Complete the routing logic. The idea is to use only Drupal routes.
  4. Optimize front-end.
  5. Solution for managing media assets.

Future

Provide support for React, Vue and other popular JavaScript frameworks.
