backoffice

Backoffice is a Framework based on Material UI, a Material Design React implementation that provides a couple of components you might want to use in a backoffice app.

Backoffice also uses react-router-dom, @material-ui/icons, material-ui-picker and some more OSS.

Purpose

The purpose of Backoffice is to provide an easier to use framework to generate applications that are mainly designed for working with data. For example for CRUD-APIs.

If you have a list of data and you want to be able to update and delete entries in the list as well as create new ones (CRUD) Backoffice helps you to build an application in "no time".

Usage

Installing

If you use yarn, just run the following command in your project’s root directory.

yarn add backoffice

Or using npm:

npm install --save backoffice

Using components

You need to create your own React application, that takes care of routing (at least for now), handling state and so on.

Within any of your components you can use a given component by importing it to your application:

import Menu from "backoffice/Menu";

You can then use the component within your render logic:

const MyMenu = ({ menuData, redirectTo }) => (
  <Menu data={menuData} redirectTo={redirectTo} />
);

Examples & Demo

You can find examples in examples/.

      light: amber[300],
      main: amber[500],
