TethysDash Frontend¶
By "TethysDash Frontend" we have usually referred to the traditional UI provided by the TethysDash system itself. Although functional, this frontend has long been considered legacy.
Toward removing the legacy TethysDash UI¶
2021-10-19: Plan to remove the legacy TethysDash UI
This email is about the legacy UI that is exposed at https://okeanids.mbari.org/TethysDash/ and https://lrauv.whoi.edu/TethysDash/.
If you are not using or have no interest on such UI, feel free to ignore the rest of this email.
Other than having been considered legacy for quite a long time already, such UI is still part of the same codebase that constitutes the backend service. This has implied some overhead especially in terms of maintainability and limited agility to deploy fixes and new enhancements to such backend service, which remains a critical component of the system.
My ideal plan would be to remove all code and dependencies related with the legacy UI as soon as possible (like by very early next year), so we can also move ahead with some much-needed backend software modernization.
So, if you still use the legacy UI, please tell me what specfically you are using, and, if that's the case, how Dash4 could/should be adjusted to satisfy your needs.
Thanks!
