Technical Details

This section provides information on the design of this application. The major design considerations are outlined below:

• Separation of visual style from functionality
  • CSS = Visual Style
  • HTML = Visual Tree
  • XSLT = Functionality
• 'Thin Server' design - no build pipeline
• Side-effect free transforms
• SEO and Accessibility - Restricted static-HTML transformer
• Scalability - Lazy loading & processing
• Browser history & bookmarkability - simulated client/server split
• Three schemas supported
  • HTML5 Article Element Schema
  • Function Specification Schema
  • JavaDoc Data Schema
• Maintainability - Predominantly coded in XSLT 2.0
• State-management and non-standard browser features - Used 'Raw' JS
