3 Debugging user interface for [Nominatim](https://nominatim.org/)
4 ([source](https://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim/)) geocoder.
5 The frontend runs standalone as website and will requests data
6 from a separate Nominatim API (either on the same server or
9 Uses [jQuery](https://jquery.com/) for browser DOM interaction,
10 [handlebar](http://handlebarsjs.com/) templates to build pages,
11 [leaflet](https://leafletjs.com/) for map interaction,
12 [bootstrap](https://getbootstrap.com/) for layout styling.
17 The user interface used to be included in the geocoder. Thus the
18 first version avoid being a redesign and still uses some of the
19 same configuration values. For simplicity it's not a single
20 page application (SPA) written in a framework though it could
21 be if complexity grows.
24 ## Starting the frontend
26 You can open the `dist` directory in your browser.
28 You can start a simple webserver
33 php -S 0.0.0.0:8000 -t dist
40 python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
42 python -m http.server 8000
48 # npm install -g light-server
49 light-server -s dist -p 8000
55 In `dist/config.js` you will find configuration options. The first
56 you want to doublecheck is the `Nominatim_API_Endpoint` URL.
59 ## Building the frontend
61 * Install dependencies
67 * After you change files in `src` directory
