Add an abstraction layer for UI components #22

Open bgruening opened 1 year ago

bgruening commented 1 year ago

We are still dependent on bootstrap-vue which has still no native Vue3 port. To be more independent in the future and to be able to convert single UI components to something else we would like to introduce an internal abstraction layer: UI Component Adapters. Work has started during the GCC Cofest and we are continuing to work on that during our stay.

In the end, this will insulate the Galaxy codebase from specific external component implementations. Additionally, it'll allow us to customize each of these separate underlying implementations.

But we are stuck here as we are missing some features in Vue2 that are only available in Vue3. Need to break this cycle.
