Enterprise React Development with UmiJS

By: Douglas Alves Venancio

Overview of this book

UmiJS is the Ant Group's underlying frontend development framework, an open source project for developing enterprise-class frontend applications. In this book, you'll get hands-on with single-page application development using UmiJS. By following practical step-by-step examples, you'll develop essential skills to build and publish your apps and create a modern user experience with responsive interfaces. This book will help you learn the essential features of UmiJS and how to set up and build a project from scratch using React, Less, and TypeScript. You'll study Ant Design, a framework based on solid design concepts that provides a series of React components to accelerate interface development. Along the way, you'll see how to make requests and develop the frontend using simulated data while ensuring that your app has a high level of security and feedback. You'll also discover ways to improve your code quality and readability using formatting tools. By the end of the book, you'll have learned how to use UmiJS to design user interfaces, as well as compile, test, and package your app locally, and deliver your app by deploying it to online services.

Introduction to the project and Ant Design

This section will introduce you to the project we'll develop and the Ant Design React library.

To illustrate the real-world use of UmiJS and Ant Design, we'll develop a frontend application for a CRM system.

A CRM system is a business application that allows a company to approach a customer, offer a solution, and develop a relationship with various strategic contacts to sell the right solution to the customer and guarantee their satisfaction.

In our example, the application has three main features: a dashboard with various reports, a registry tracking opportunities, and a registry of customers.

We'll also guarantee that our application is easy to be extended and modified in the face of business requirements, has a clean code style, and supports internationalization.

To build the interfaces of our frontend application, we'll use the Ant Design React library. Let's learn more about the antd library and...
