What is the state of the project ? #3
Comments
Thanks for you interest. The project is in development but not as fast as I wanted to. This repository serves as a boiler plate template, but most recent files are in w2ui/src/kickstart. I have been busy with many updates in w2ui recently and have neglected this project. I am planning to resume it within a month or so and get it off the ground. However, I think there will be some significant architectural changes that will effect the project. For one, I am thinking of dropping Angular as a core component or at least will make it optional. I am struggling with Angular at the moment, in particular that Angular makes thinks complicated. Indeed, it gets you started very fast and you get a lot of wows in the beginning, but the code you produce with Angular becomes more and more complicated. I like the simplicity of modular pattern, which serves the same purpose as angular modules. I am also evaluating rivetsjs for two way data-binding. Secondly, I am thinking of much more tighter integration with NodeJS and implement basic server side services: security, validation, modularity, and basic modules (users, groups, roles, etc.). To answer your questions:

I have just updated the project to the latest I had locally. It now has routes and better module definition. Documentation though is not fully updated. |
Thanks for your time :-). In fact i come from Symfony and extjs but extjs is bloated and i'm tired to mix all this language that's why i looking for a solution in javascript world. Your solution seems to Is your solution ready for production App ? What's the diffence between Angular and Rivets ? Can i start to work with rivets.js directly ? Another question before i start do you have some advice for Internationalization ? I gonna take a look to your upgrade … |
Kickstart is a very light framework. It is basically a set of libraries and design patterns how to developer large javascript applications. As such, it is as ready for production as libraries that it uses. It is based on jQuery and w2ui primarily and the rest of libraries are optional. I do have it in few production projects that have been running for a few years now. As far as for Angular and rivets, they are totally different and overlap only partially. Angular is big and shiny, but I only want to use one aspect of it, bi-directional data bindings. Because of this I started looking into rivets, which just do data binding and it is very small. As far as internalization is concerned, it should not be a problem. W2UI supports it, but you have to implement it in all the apps you develop yourself. |
I wonder if you've considered using React for this project. |
Hi,
i have take a look to your project wich seems very interesting. But i don't undersand if it's stable ?
Thanks for your explanations … ;-)
