Hi,

Here's a heads-up for everybody who tracks the master branch. Last night we merged the "webpack" branch. This branch changes how our Javascript is being created.

To convert to the new method, please run these commands in the root of your working directory:

 $ rm -rf ./UI/js-src/{dojo,dijit,util}

 $ make dojo

Or, if you run your development in a docker container:

The procedure to build our Javascript has switched from using Dojo Toolkit's "util" package to using "webpack" for the building process. The process has been extended to implement quality controls for javascript, html, css and markdown to the generation process.

All in all should this switch allow us to integrate better with Javascript front-end development as it's done today. Not unimportant: we'll be able to leverage React or Vue to build our front-end!
