Collection of packages that power the Apache Superset UI, and can be used to craft custom data applications that leverage a Superset backend 📈

Demo

Most recent release: https://apache-superset.github.io/superset-ui/

Current master: https://superset-ui.now.sh/

Packages

Core packages

Chart plugin packages

@superset-ui/legacy-* packages are extracted from the classic Apache Superset and converted into plugins. These packages are extracted with minimal changes (almost as-is). They also depend on legacy API (viz.py) to function.

@superset-ui/plugin-* packages are newer and higher quality in general. A key difference that they do not depend on viz.py (which contain visualization-specific python code) and interface with /api/v1/query/, a new generic endpoint instead meant to serve all visualizations, instead. Also should be written in Typescript.

Deploy with Vercel

The Vercel deployment will guide you through creating a Supabase account and project. After installing the Supabase integration, you'll need to configure Stripe with a few simple steps.

Note: We're working on our Stripe integration. We've documented the required steps below under "Configure Stripe" until the integration is ready.

To get started, click the "Deploy with Vercel" button below.

Once the project has deployed, continue with the configuration steps below.

The initial build will fail due to missing Stripe environment variables. After configuring Stripe, redeploy the application.

4. Markdown PDF

Node module that converts Markdown files to PDFs.

📄 Markdown to PDF converter

markdown-pdf Build Status Dependency Status Coverage Status

Node module that converts Markdown files to PDFs.

The PDF looks great because it is styled by HTML5 Boilerplate. What? - Yes! Your Markdown is first converted to HTML, then pushed into the HTML5 Boilerplate index.html. Phantomjs renders the page and saves it to a PDF. You can even customise the style of the PDF by passing an optional path to your CSS and you can pre-process your markdown file before it is converted to a PDF by passing in a pre-processing function, for templating.

Install

npm install -g markdown-pdf --ignore-scripts
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Note: elevated (sudo) permissions may be needed for npm install -g

Usage

Usage: markdown-pdf [options] <markdown-file-path&gt
Options

  -V, --version                          output the version number
  <markdown-file-path>                   Path of the markdown file to convert
  -c, --cwd [path]                       Current working directory
  -p, --phantom-path [path]              Path to phantom binary

The Serverless Framework – Build applications comprised of microservices that run in response to events, auto-scale for you, and only charge you when they run. This lowers the total cost of maintaining your apps, enabling you to build more logic, faster.

The Framework uses new event-driven compute services, like AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, and more. It's a command-line tool, providing scaffolding, workflow automation and best practices for developing and deploying your serverless architecture. It's also completely extensible via plugins.

Material-UI Treasury PRs Welcome lerna

All Contributors

Imagine a place with millions of real-world, ready-to-use, and themable components that you can install to your project. I believe that it will boost many projects that want to prove their ideas or even improve complex monolith project to move faster.

Material-UI v5

@mui-treasury/layout

BREAKING CHANGE see v5 documentation

Summary Highlight

  • smaller bundle size (-30%)
  • faster
  • single sidebar (no duplicate for all variants)

@mui-treasury/components, @mui-treasury/styles

  1. upgrade material-ui
yarn add @material-ui/core@next @material-ui/styles@next
// make sure that it is 5.0.0-alpha.37
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Note: the above installation requires @material-ui/styles because mui-treasury depends on it.

  1. upgrade mui-treasury
yarn add @mui-treasury/components@next @mui-treasury/styles@next
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

As a result, you will get 2.0.0-alpha for both packages. However, these packages still use the old style-engine (JSS) while material-ui v5 have moved to either emotion or styled-components. This will increase the bundle size a bit because you will have 2 style-engine in the project (JSS + emotion or styled-components).
