This component provides the main user interface. It mainly builds on React and Next.js - a JavaScript library and a framework for building user interfaces.
The OPAL Web User Interface is part of the OPAL demo component. It requires a running OPAL webservice, which provides the data to display.
For OPAL deliverable D7.3, a mobile app was integrated to the OPAL user interface. It supports users in identifying data at their current locations.
The demonstrator was implemented by a web-app using Responsive web design (RWD).
The required user geo information is requested via the navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition function specified by W3C [GeoApi, Position].
The functionality was added using an integrated table sorting [OrderBy].
