DSpace 7 had a large presence at OR2019 in Hamburg, Germany, including two workshops and seven major talks. All the materials (slides, etc) and video recordings from OR2019 are available off the wiki page DSpace 7 at OR2019. Please note that workshops were not recorded, but all materials (slides / code examples) are linked off that page. On February 28, 2017, we held a DuraSpace Hot Topics webinar to discuss the latest activities of this Working Group, with details from both the Angular UI and REST API subteams. The slides and video of that Hot Topics webinar are available at http://duraspace.org/node/3103 We've also provided a high-level summary of current status (based on the webinar) at: DSpace 7 UI Project Plain Language Summary |
Scope & Objectives
The goal of this working group, led by Tim Donohue, is to create a new, single User Interface (UI) for DSpace that implements all functionality currently available in JSPUI and XMLUI. The UI will interact with DSpace core data through a completely new REST API to insure complete separation of the user layer from the data layer. This working group is split into two subteams: an Angular Subteam, led by Art Lowel (Atmire), which is concentrating on building a modern, responsive, client-side user interface using Angular and a REST API Subteam, led by Andrea Bollini (4Science), which is concentrating on building a new REST API based on state-of-art technologies, standards and best practices.

Contributing
- Code Contributions: Generally, our working group follows the documented DSpace Code Contribution Guidelines and Code Style Guide.
- We also have our own DSpace 7 Working Group Processes document to provide additional details about our meeting structure, code contribution & review processes, etc.
- Join one of our weekly meetings (see below). Meetings tend to be hands-on, but we welcome newcomers.
- Developers are welcome to jump in and claim tickets for either Angular UI or REST API. We maintain a list of easier tickets specifically for new developers to learn about the contribution process (If none of these tickets look interesting, or the list is getting small, please get in touch and we'll find an easy task for you to start with)
- DSpace 7 Community Sprints : We run regular, public development sprints with anyone who wants to contribute. No prior experience with DSpace 7 is necessary, and it's a great opportunity to learn DSpace 7 in a "hands on", collaborative environment (Sprint Coaches are available for questions).
- Get in touch with the team via Slack. We'd be glad to talk about other ways to contribute
