Frontend Documentation

The frontend is an Angular application located in the ui/ directory. It is designed to be built as a custom element or a standalone application that runs inside the Wails webview.

Structure

  • Path: ui/
  • Framework: Angular
  • Output: The build process generates artifacts in ui/dist.

Development

The frontend can be developed using standard Angular CLI commands or via the provided demo CLI which serves the built files.

Build Process

To build the frontend for production or integration with the Go backend:

cd ui
npm install
npm run build

This will compile the Angular application and place the output in the dist/ directory, which the Go backend can then serve or embed.

Integration

The frontend communicates with the Go backend through the Wails runtime. It can trigger actions defined in the backend (like opening windows) and receive events.
