Re: [Exist-open] Problems on a sample XRX applications

[Joern T. <joe...@gm...>]

Hey John,

As a pure client-side framework Fore is independent of eXist-db and you can
play with it outside of eXist.

To quickly start to play with Fore there's 'fore-project' on Github -
https://github.com/Jinntec/fore-project

This gives you a simple webserver and also allows you to create some
Cypress tests for your pages. To actually deploy this into an app you just
have to move your html page, the fore css files and fore.js to appropriate
locations in your xar and be done.

However I also created an eXist-db app to make it even easier for eXist-db
users but there's a HTML serialization bug in  eXide that unfortunately
breaks Fore pages when used for editing. Other ways to deploy the HTML
(e.g. via Oxygen or WebDav) should however work. I hope I can work that out
and offer it via the eXist-db package repo.

Joern
