We are re-architecting the RAFT application to accomplish the following:
- Make it easier to add new features
- Make it possible to unit test the application
- Make it possible to functional test the application
- Make it easier for new developers to understand and work on the code
- Make the code more modular
- Prove that a modular, extensible skeleton based on a known JavaScript MVC framework (Angular.js in this case) can make application development fast, simple, repeatable and manageable.
- Try to discover the required documentation needed for a software development project: what is needed for project management, requirements, design, development, testing, and help.
The following pages explain the structure of the application skeleton, how to use it, and how we are re-implementing RAFT in the new skeleton.
