This project is about depicting the concepts of RAFT with the help of a user interface. If you are wondering what exactly RAFT is, i recommend this link for a good grasp on inner workings of the protocol. Briefly explaining, this protocol is about how you can build your own distributed cache/datastore with concepts which are intuitive and reasonable as compared to other similar systems such as Paxos. You can think of it as TCP/IP for data communications. The choice of framework for developing the UI is Angular 4.
