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.

Chapter 2: Creating User Interfaces with Ant Design

Following the principles of Ant Design, the Ant Financial user experience design team created the antd library, which offers a variety of React components you can use to accelerate user interface development.

In this chapter, we'll study the antd library and create user interfaces using it. The first section will introduce you to the project we will develop, a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application. Then, we'll configure the layout plugin and theme. We'll create the home page and configure internationalization support (also known as i18n). Finally, we'll make the Opportunities page, Customers page, and Reports page.

In this chapter, we'll cover the following main topics:

  • Introduction to the project and Ant Design
  • Setting up the layout and theme
  • Creating the home page and setting up i18n
  • Creating the Opportunities and Customers pages
  • Creating the Reports page
