Yesterday we launched the new Single Page App for the VersionEye – GitHub/Bitbucket integration. For sure you know the old one. This here.
It had a lot of disadvantages. The UI was confusing and cluttered with a lot of information, which is not important for the VersionEye use case. And specially if you had a lot of branches and project files in a repository you had to scroll in the little fixed div area. That was not very comfortable.
The new SPA (Single Page App) is a completely rewrite, with ReactJS. The UI is much simpler, there is nothing you can do wrong. This is the initial page.
You get ALL your repositories listed, without any other useless information. With the text input field you can filter the list and quickly get to your desired repository. By clicking on a repository name you come to the next page, there we import ALL the branches and the supported project files.
Here you can take advantage of the full size of your screen. If you want to monitor a file, simply flip the switch on. After the file is parsed the file name will turn into a link which leads to the VersionEye project page, where you can see all the dependencies of the file.
This SPA is much simpler than the old one. There is nothing you can do wrong and it works much faster. Beside the SPA we also refactored the backend services, which now take more advantage of RabbitMQ. You can try the new SPA in the login area here for GitHub:
