Fixes the issue where the skip link wouldn't take you to the main content of the page anymore. Also includes a few related minor semantic and a11y improvements: 1. The `main` element now only surrounds the actual main content of the page. The sidebar is nav content and shouldn't be within it. The easiest way to do this was to change the element that was previously a `main` to a `div` and make the main content wrapper a `main` instead. 2. Makes the skip link target visible when focused. But invisible otherwise. This has two benefits: 1. It's immediately obvious that using the skip link has worked. It tells you that it's at the start of the main content. 2. Because the link now has text, it can be targeted by link search (e.g. in Firefox, press `'` to search for links (I use this **a lot**)), making it super easy to move your focus to the main content directly. (Yes, landmark navigation should also work here, though, especially with the `main` change). The implementation of UI considerations of the skip link are based on the CSS-tricks article [a deep dive on skipping to content](https://css-tricks.com/a-deep-dive-on-skipping-to-content/) from 2021. Here's what it looks like when you skip to content: ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c22819e6-f801-47d8-a9d9-908c250fd6ba) When it doesn't have focus, it's invisible. |

frontend
This directory contains the Unleash Admin UI frontend app.
Run with a local instance of the unleash-api
Refer to the Contributing to Unleash guide for instructions. The frontend dev server runs (in port 3000) simultaneously with the backend dev server (in port 4242):
yarn install
yarn dev
Run with a sandbox instance of the Unleash API
Alternatively, instead of running unleash-api on localhost, you can use a remote instance:
cd ./frontend
yarn install
yarn run start:sandbox
Running end-to-end tests
We have a set of Cypress tests that run on the build before a PR can be merged so it's important that you check these yourself before submitting a PR. On the server the tests will run against the deployed Heroku app so this is what you probably want to test against:
yarn run start:sandbox
In a different shell, you can run the tests themselves:
yarn run e2e:heroku
If you need to test against patches against a local server instance, you'll need to run that, and then run the end to end tests using:
yarn run e2e
You may also need to test that a feature works against the enterprise version of unleash. Assuming the Heroku instance is still running, this can be done by:
yarn run start:enterprise
yarn run e2e
Generating the OpenAPI client
The frontend uses an OpenAPI client generated from the backend's OpenAPI spec. Whenever there are changes to the backend API, the client should be regenerated:
For now we only use generated types (src/openapi/models). We will use methods (src/openapi/apis) for new features soon.
yarn gen:api
rm -rf src/openapi/apis
clean up src/openapi/index.ts
imports, only keep first line export * from './models';
This script assumes that you have a running instance of the enterprise backend at http://localhost:4242
.
The new OpenAPI client will be generated from the runtime schema of this instance.
The target URL can be changed by setting the UNLEASH_OPENAPI_URL
env var.
