Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-16465:
------------------------------------
Thanks for caring for the Admin UI. I think some of us have stopped hoping
after so many reboots that just faded. I can see how an incremental approach is
less likely to fail. But someone still needs to do the first PR, port one page
over and document how to do it for others to be able to contribute. What is you
thought on how that could happen?
Also, even if I'm not a frontend guy, I have understood that a migration to
e.g. React is also possible in an incremental fashion, see
[https://buttercms.com/blog/migrating-from-angularjs-to-react/] and similar
blogs. React would of course be a superior choice since it has many fold
develper attention and popularity. The left-menu and the "Login" parts of
AdminUI will need to be bridged between the two, but once you have wired up
react, you can start replacing screen by screen.
But at the end of the day, it is more important for Solr that the job gets done
than with what exact tools.

> I suggest using

> start a linear migration process to Angular from Angular JS. ngUpgrade will
> reach the end of life at the end of 2023, so we will only get a year of using
> it seamlessly, but this seems to me like the last resort regarding a linear
> migration of the Admin UI codebase. The need for this is of course to migrate
> the current Admin UI project to newer technology, instead of writing it all
> from the start (or implementing the same stuff once more in YASA).
