Yesterday in a frontend meeting I lamented that the full stack DX (Developer Experience) for Dataverse isn't great.
For the backend, we have an awesome fast redeploy pioneered by @Balรกzs Pataki.
When working on the new React frontend (using dev-env), we can't make use of it. :disappointed: dev-env itself (created by @Guillermo Portas) is fantastic and allows for a fast feedback loop when working on the frontend. Ideally we'll have a fast feedback loop both the frontend and the backend at the same time.
In that meeting I said I'd put this on the agenda for the next containerization working group meeting, which I just did. I hope to see you there!
@Oliver Bertuch @Guillermo Portas here's the PR of what we tried today in Netbeans: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-frontend/pull/692
All, please feel free to try in IntelliJ or other IDEs!
I just stumbled over this: probably shipping with Payara 6.2025.5 https://github.com/payara/Payara/pull/7097 - I'm eager to look into that!
nice!
thin wars!
