New Cubi UI with Angularjs

[ro...@openbiz.me]

Hi All,

I recently wrote typical Openbiz Cubi UI layer with Angularjs. It is a very exciting experience. I've found the new approach really work well. Angularjs can simplify a lot browser javascript code and template. It also make EasyForm code much cleaner and smaller. Surprisingly the current Cubi UI look and feel may keep the same with Angularjs enabled.

I put my initial experience at wiki page https://code.google.com/p/openbiz-cubi/wiki/RewriteCubiUIWithAngular

All your comments are welcome.

Ok, help me understand a little better... This isn´t related to OpenBiz-JS, this is for the PHP Cubi project, isn´t it ?

Yes, this is on php on server end with angularjs on browser end. The goal is to use the power of existing cubi and cutting edge angular. In the new structure:
- ui server code will be small and light, only render template without real data.
- angularjs takes care of browser data and ajax logic vs restful api
- add a new restful web service on top of cubi data object layer

Here is an update of the progress.

- Use Slim for server side routing

- Adopt Single Page Application (SPA) model, rewrite several pages as SPA.

- SPA not only makes the user interaction really fast, but simplify server template a lot. I believe this is a huge win.
