# Japper: A framework for building Jupyter-based web applications
Japper is a framework for building Jupyter-based web applications. It is designed to be a lightweight, flexible, and
extensible framework that can be used to build a wide range of web applications.
**Note: This project is still in the early stages of development, and the documentation is a work in progress. Please
check back later for updates.**
## Why Japper?
### Problems with Jupyter-based web applications development
Jupyter is a popular open-source web application that provides a rich set of tools for building interactive web
applications. However, building Jupyter-based web applications can be challenging for several reasons:
- Time-consuming setup and configuration
- Setting up a development environment for Jupyter-based web applications can be time-consuming and error-prone.
- Managing dependencies and environment can be difficult, especially when working with multiple projects.
- Test and deployment can be complex.
- Limited frontend capabilities and extensibility of ipywidgets
- Jupyter provides a rich set of tools for building interactive web applications, but it has limited frontend
capabilities and extensibility.
- Building custom components and plugins can be challenging.
- Lack of debugging and error handling
- Jupyter provides limited support for debugging and error handling, making it difficult to diagnose and fix issues.
- Lack of architectural guidance
- There is no architectural guidance, making it difficult to build scalable and maintainable web applications.
### Solutions provided by Japper
Japper is a framework for building Jupyter-based web applications easily and quickly. Here are some of the key features:
- Command-line interface for creating and managing Japper projects
- Create a new Japper project with pre-configured templates to get started quickly
- Manage dependencies and environment with a simple configuration file
- Build and run development and production versions using Docker
- Deploy to Docker registry or Kubernetes with a single command
- Automatically generate documentation for your Japper project
- Vue.js-based frontend for building interactive web applications utilizing ipyvuetify
- Provide a rich set of components and utilities for building web applications
- Support for custom components and plugins
- Improved debugging and error handling
- Support for logging and error handling
- Guided Model-View-Presenter (MVP) architectural pattern
- Support for building scalable and maintainable web applications
- Support for building reusable components and plugins
## Getting started
To get started with Japper, you can install it using pip:
```bash
pip install japper
```
Note that Japper currently support Linux and MacOS only.
Once installed, you can run japper commands from the command line.
```bash
japper
```
### Japper Forge
Japper Forge is a web-based tool that allows you to create and manage Japper projects. You can access Japper Forge by
running the following command:
```bash
japper forge
```
This will start a web server, and Japper Forge will automatically open in your web browser.
### Japper CLI
You can create a new Japper project using the `japper` command-line interface:
```bash
japper init
```
This will create a new Japper project with pre-configured templates to get you started quickly.
Enter the project directory after creating the project:
```bash
cd <project_name>
```
To run the development version of your Japper project, you can use the `japper run dev` command:
```bash
japper run dev
```
This will start a development server, and you can open your Japper project in a web browser. By default, the development
server will run on port 8888. (You can visit `http://localhost:8888` in your web browser to see your Japper project.)
To build and run the production version of your Japper project, you can use the `japper run prod` command:
```bash
japper run prod
```
This will build a production version of your Japper project and run it using Docker.
To deploy your Japper project to a Docker registry, you can use the `japper deploy registry` command:
```bash
japper deploy registry
```
This will build a production version of your Japper project and deploy it to a Docker registry. Japper will ask you for
the Docker registry URL and other configurations.
To generate documentation for your Japper project, you can use the `japper doc` command:
```bash
japper doc
```
This will generate documentation for your Japper project using pydoc3. You can find the documentation in the `docs`
folder
