Robert Kanter commented on OOZIE-2683:
--------------------------------------
Hue is also a good alternative with a modern UI and both a dashboard and editor.
In any case, anything would be better than what we have now with the
license-incompatible really old extjs UI :)
I had only mentioned GWT because it's written in Java, which would make it
(hopefully) easier for the current Oozie developers, who are not front-end UI
people, to write and maintain. But if someone wants to contribute a UI written
in another framework, I'm sure we'd accept pretty much anything.

> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Robert Kanter

> We're currently relying on a version of ExtJS that's so old, it's not linked
> on their official website, and is often temporarily deleted. Looks like it's
> now been deleted for good (OOZIE-2622). It also has a GPL license, so we
> can't include it with Oozie, and users are forced to go and download it
> themselves. And finally, it's a really outdated UI that's not very good.
> We should invest in a new Web UI that's more modern and compatibly licensed.
