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.

Summary

In this chapter, you were introduced to the project we'll build, the Ant Design React library, and Pro components. You also learned how to configure the layout using the UmiJS layout plugin and define and customize the global layout using the global.less file. You learned how to customize the application theme by changing the default LESS variables used by Ant Design components.

We also created and defined our application layout's right-side content to show the user's name, avatar, and a language selector. You learned how to set up internationalization using the UmiJS locale plugin and created the home page. Next, we made the Customers and Opportunities pages using the ProTable component.

Finally, we built the Reports page using antd library components to define the layout and the bizcharts library to render three charts.

In the next chapter, we'll generate a mock API, make requests to the backend, and learn how to use services and models.
