Excerpt

Working group is retired. Next phase of this work (creating the DSpace 7 UI) has moved over to DSpace 7 Working Group (2016-2023)



Info
titleWorking Group tasks are completed

The tasks of this working group have completed with the resolution of the DSpace UI Prototype Challenge and the selection of the Angular 2 UI platform for the next UI (see the Angular 2 UI proof-of-concept).

This selection was announced during a presentation at the OR16 conference in Dublin.

As the new UI Initiative work transitions into a community-led/organized project, this working group has no future activities assigned. However it may be re-established at any time as deemed necessary.

Scope & Objectives

The DSpace Strategy and Roadmap Working Group recommended that the highest priority and first project for the new DSpace roadmap should be the creation of a single UI for DSpace.  There is already wide support from stakeholders and DSpace Steering for a project to identify an architecture and technology that would replace the existing XMLUI and JSPUI interfaces with a new, modern UI.

...

It is expected that the work of this group will be completed within a twelve-to-sixteen week timespan.
