User interface component architecture (UICA) - Reference project skeleton

uica-skeleton

This User Interface Component Architecture (UICA) Skeleton for single page applications is a simple project using the uica-stack.

Purpose

The uica-skeleton is the skeleton project demonstrating the usage of the uica-stack.

It includes:

• A simple mock server (incl. proxy capabilities) for local development
• A grunt based build process
• A component oriented architecture following the UICA - User Interface Component Architecture

Getting started

To run the SPA skeleton project fork and clone it.

The project is based on node.js. Ensure that you have at least one node virtual machine available on your client.

Once node.js and the uica-skeleton project are available you can use the node package manager (npm) to install all projects dependencies (folder node_modules will be created):

cd %PROJECT_ROOT%
npm install

If you are running npm behind a company firewall you have to additionally set the proxy for npm:

npm config set proxy=http://{{proxy name or ip}}:{{proxy port}}/
npm config set https-proxy=https://{{proxy name or ip}}:{{proxy port}}/

After the npm install is done you can run the uica-skeleton build process

npm start

The build process is finally starting an node.js based web server and provides the application under http://localhost:5678/#dev
