Riot.js demo application

This is a demo single-page demo application made with Riot.js. It's a generic skeleton for an administration panel that shows the core concepts of modular client side development.

Features

• actually something useful, just fork it and extend it to your needs
• plain and minimal UI
• authentication and session management
• small: ~10kb minified, including Riot (4kb gzipped)
• optional caching of server side requests

Modular architecture

• one global variable admin to build modules
• modules can be included in no specific order (*.js)
• modules can be renamed/removed/modified on without breaking the app
• backend agnostic
• easy to maintain and extend, good for multiple developers

Extendable

• Real API: try for example admin().load("customers") on console
• Promise based server calls for more fluent error handling
• Use app name to extend instead of a framework name: admin(callback)

Planned

• real backend (firebase, hosted server, to be decided...)
• realtime channel
• tests for both UI and API layer
• documented API, including events

Installation

Hit following commands to run the administration panel on the console

bower install
npm install
./make.js gen
open index.html
./make.js watch

You should be able to modify JS and Stylus files and the concatenation and pre-compilation is automatically taken care of. Check make.js for more other targets than watch.
