Define architecture

[tgg]

Goal

Define how AppArray will work. While we expect to use a browser for regular usage there are plenty of open questions.

Questions

• agentless? we could alternatively inject a client (e.g. written in go) on a machine
• separate UI from definition?
• UI stack could use:
  • TypeScript?
  • React or Vue or Angular
  • Elm
• Backend if needed could use:
  • F#
  • Elixir
  • Ballerina?
  • Node.js
  • Next.js
  • WebAssembly
  • Deno.land
• Client/server communication could use:
  • REST
  • GraphQL
  • GRPC

Must have

• Shell to interactivily add elements (aka whiteboard)
• Ability to open a shell (Unix ssh or Windows pwsh) on a remote machine

Nice to have

• Full IDE e.g. with Visual Studio Code plugin or Theia
• Open a SQL client
• Browse messages in queue with viewer
