Frontend refactor #625

Open sosedoff opened 1 year ago

sosedoff commented 1 year ago

Frontend code is seriously dated and needs a fresh rewrite, using some minimalistic js framework.

A few things to consider:

gedw99 commented 1 year ago

consider the htmx approach

https://htmx.org/

https://github.com/topics/htmx?l=go

Davincible commented 1 year ago

I like Lit HTML elements (native web components) with pure TS; https://lit.dev/

Both Adobe and IBM have their component libraries available as Lit HTML elements, I think that would look cool

Nice video on the topic; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9YDQUJx2uw

Upvote for htmx and ideally have navigation + title too. so the URL changes from http://localhost:8081/# to reflect the table that is being viewed. This would help with bookmarking and when multiple tabs.

Is this still up for debate? Svelte looks great. The library is just 1.7kb total size

sosedoff commented 3 months ago

This issue is still relevant, although i would not call this "up for debate". Svelte looks promising, but i have not done any frontend work in a while so not sure if it'll be a right choice. But to be fair, at this point any framework is going to be a better choice than the current stack (html+jquery).

I'll be happy to help with this, I use pgweb every day. In my opinion, the amount of readily available, accessible, batteries-included, headless (unthemed so you can make them your own) components available in React makes it a viable option to build complete UIs, fast (IF, there is minimal state to handle).

sosedoff commented 1 month ago

@azan-n I specifically do not want react in this project.
