Hi everyone!
I’m back with another update on my project of migrating OneBB forum from javascript to typescript in Vue Vite. If you don’t know what OneBB is, it’s an open source discussion software that is simple to use and extended with a plugin system. It uses Symfony for the backend and Vue for the frontend. I’ve been working on this project for a few months now and I’m happy to report that I’ve reached around 30% of progress.
So what have I done so far? Well, here are some of the main tasks that I’ve completed:
- Set up vue vite as the build tool for faster development and better performance
- Converted all the javascript files to typescript files with proper typing and linting
- Refactored some of the components to use composition API and reactive state management
- Implemented authentication and authorization using JWT tokens and API Platform
Of course, there are still many things left to do, such as:
- Finish converting all the components to typescript and composition API
- Add more features and functionality to the forum such as notifications, polls, attachments, etc.
- Improve the UI/UX design and responsiveness
- Optimize the code quality and performance
- Write tests and documentation
I’m really excited about this project because I think it will make OneBB more modern, scalable and maintainable. I also hope that it will attract more users and developers who are interested in open source forum software.
