React Widgets
React components and Redux modules for embedded Webex Teams
Overview
The Webex Widgets for React library is a game-changer for developers looking to seamlessly integrate Webex functionalities into their applications. With its user-friendly components and a range of widgets, this library allows for a smooth development experience. Developers can leverage an assortment of both simple presentational components and more complex widgets, facilitating the creation of rich, interactive user experiences that reflect the styles and capabilities of Webex.
Designed with React in mind, the library not only offers reusable components like buttons and icons, but also extends functionalities through widgets such as the Space and Recents widgets. This robust approach ensures that developers can implement Webex’s features quickly while maintaining a consistent aesthetic throughout their applications.
Features
- User-Friendly Components: Offers easy-to-use presentational React components that reflect the Webex aesthetic.
- Comprehensive Widgets: Includes self-contained widgets like Space and Recents that provide extended Webex functionalities.
- Redux Integration: Leverages Redux for state management, enhancing the interaction of components within the application.
- Easy Installation: Clone the repository and run a single npm command to get started, reducing setup time.
- Version Control: Versioning is accessible through script tags, allowing developers to keep track of updates effortlessly.
- Web Styleguide Compliance: Developed in accordance with the Webex Web Styleguide, ensuring high-quality and consistent design.
- Security Features: Includes Sub-resource Integrity (SRI) hashes for CDN hosted files, adding an extra layer of verification for security.
- Signature Verification: Provides a public key for verifying signatures, ensuring authenticity in the implementation of widgets.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- SCSS
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Netlify
Netlify is a cloud-based web development platform that provides a range of tools and services to help developers build, deploy, and manage modern web applications. It offers features such as continuous deployment, serverless functions, and CDN hosting, making it an ideal platform for building fast, scalable, and secure websites.
- Postcss
PostCSS is a popular open-source tool that enables web developers to transform CSS styles with JavaScript plugins. It allows for efficient processing of CSS styles, from applying vendor prefixes to improving browser compatibility, ultimately resulting in cleaner, faster, and more maintainable code.
- Redux
Redux is a state management library for JavaScript apps that provides a predictable and centralized way to manage application state. It enables developers to write actions and reducers that update the state in response to user interactions, server responses, and other events, and can be used with a variety of front-end frameworks and back-end technologies.
- Rollup
RollupJS is a popular and efficient JavaScript module bundler that takes the code from multiple modules and packages them into a single optimized file, minimizing the overall size of the application and improving its performance.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
- Webpack
Webpack is a popular open-source module bundler for JavaScript applications that bundles and optimizes the code and its dependencies for production-ready deployment. It can also be used to transform other types of assets such as CSS, images, and fonts.
