I'm not sure how this differs from Koha adding Zebra, adding Elastic or adding a restful api. To me, this is not a matter of adding new for the sake of new ( React isn't even new at this point ) but of adding something that is necessary and long overdue. The question isn't about needing React or not, it's about the need for a modern JS UI toolkit to take advantage of our svc and rest api's without the need to write crazy amounts of code to make it work with just jQuery. Take a look at the javascript file for the holds table and you'll see what I mean. A React implementation of it would be *so* much cleaner and easier to understand for everyone. Please don't ask me to rewrite it as a poc though ; ) I *will* be happy to rewrite it post-adoption. > > Also, how would this React POC go in terms of translations? > React is just Javascript, and is translated the same way translate all our other js files. > > David Cook > Systems Librarian > Prosentient Systems > 72/330 Wattle St > Ultimo, NSW 2007 > Australia > > Office: 02 9212 0899 > Direct: 02 8005 0595 > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: koha-devel-boun...@lists.koha-community.org [mailto:koha-devel- > > boun...@lists.koha-community.org] On Behalf Of Owen Leonard > > Sent: Monday, 19 September 2016 11:33 PM > > To: Koha Devel <koha-devel@lists.koha-community.org> > > Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] To React or not to React > > > > > Another thing is that you need nodejs to compile it so is another > > > thing to throw on the stack. > > > > Isn't this the kind of dependency requirement that killed my request to > > introduce a front-end build tool like Grunt or Gulp? > > > > -- Owen > > > > -- > > Web Developer > > Athens County Public Libraries > > http://www.myacpl.org > > _______________________________________________ > > Koha-devel mailing list > > Koha-devel@lists.koha-community.org > > http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel > > website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha- > > community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/ > > >
