Front-End Tech Stack Pivot #38

Closed jbeatty88 closed 3 years ago

jbeatty88 commented 3 years ago

Front-end team is researching new options for designing the front-end. These options include:

  1. Phylotree.js
  2. TidyTree
  3. Pylogeny.io
  4. From Scratch using D3

All of the above tools make use of D3 which requires special attention to integrate with React due to how each interact with the DOM.

If you want to learn more about it and the steps to integrate it with React. See this article

Phylogeny.io is the best choice because it is extremely flexible for us to modify with our improvements and also has many existing features. The Frontend Base PR sets up the environment with the phylogenyio base as well as boilerplate pages for team members to work on.
