Discuss Upgrades and React

Work Required

• React Support for Translations

• React Automated Testing

• Build Process Improvements - Simplifying the Page Creation Process/Code

• Continuous upgrades for dependencies/libraries

• Upgrade Implementer Customization document and templates for React

Work Plan

• Will upgrade pages over time with 20% tech-debt time

  • Starting with “easiest” upgrades to more difficult ones

  • Will create a plan for the order of page upgrades

• Will create reusable components as needed

• All new work will be in React

Questions

• How does this impact implementation customizations?

  • Pages upgraded to React will no longer support customizations made in Angular

    • Wes - This is not acceptable, breaking changes must be limited and implementations given lots of notifications

• How do we integrate contributions written in Angular?

  • Contributions must be ported to React to be incorporated

    • Only for pages updated to React or newly created pages

    • Changes to pages still in Angular can remain in Angular

  • Over time, all community guidance will be updated to React
