Demo integration #60

Open maxkfranz opened 5 years ago

maxkfranz commented 5 years ago

Years ago, Seb helped integrate the BioJS demos for Cytoscape using his sniper package. It looks like that demo format is no longer supported?

Is there documentation for upgrading to the new format? I'm having trouble finding it, if it exists.

Hey @maxkfranz! We're working on updating the biojs standards to encourage higher quality and easier demos. One of the big problems we've had is that the larger packages can take a long time to build and end up timing out if we build them server side, so we generally prefer built packages e.g. using CDN links or a dist folder in the package.

With any luck, we should be having a GSoC student starting to work on this within the next few weeks. Perhaps they can work with you to get things up and working again?

@sarthak-sehgal @DennisSchwartz any comments to add to this?
