Make a number of decisions about the structure, build tools, ways of working, etc.

Seed Project & build tools

There is no seed project ideally suited for our purpose at the moment.
Angular-cli is the recommendation from the angular team, and is assumed to be used in most guides and posts
But the current stable angular-cli branch isn't compatible with angular universal
there is a fork that adds compatibility released as a separate npm package called universal-cli
That has also been merged in to angular-cli a few days ago: PR
But isn’t part of a release yet
We could
- start from the universal seed project
- start from universal-cli
- start from the angular-cli master branch
Something else to keep in mind is the ability to keep it modular and extensible. If this becomes the DSpace UI, how do customisations to it work?
- Do people fork the UI github and work on the code?
- Does the UI become an NPM package that people include in their own projects?
- Should there be some sort of overlay system, like in the the current XMLUI?
