npm start -- --opennpx parcel buildtk - something about how the catalog / sub-catalog / item templates are laid out
This is my (Seth's) first Vue app. I've previously built a number of React SPAs and have helped maintain + create apps with Backbone, D3, jQuery, and others, though I'm mostly a server-side guy.
Of these, React (with Webpack) has provided me with the best development experience, especially for apps with relatively complex functionality.
However, when approaching the problem of building a STAC browser intended for others to (easily) contribute to and run against their own catalogs (both dynamically and when generating a static site), I wanted something with relative self-contained HTML and CSS (so that those unfamiliar with Vue wouldn't need to face JavaScript when making minor changes). Vue's single file components fit the bill.
For pre-rendering catalogs, chrisvfritz/prerender-spa-plugin looks like a promising way to use headless Chrome (puppeteer) to generate HTML for ease of search engine indexing.
