Scope & Objectives

The goal of this working group, led by Tim Donohue, is to create a new, single User Interface (UI) for DSpace that implements all functionality currently available in JSPUI and XMLUI.  The interface UI will interact with DSpace core data through the a completely new REST API to insure complete separation of the user layer from the data layer. It will be built as a modern responsive client side web application using Angular 2.
