and incorporate in the existing product frontend.

See it in action!

Privacy

All your data is safely stored on your computer, never leaving the browser. This means that the Carbon UI Builder works even if you don't have internet connection.

What's Carbon, anyway?

It's IBM's design system with ready-to-go component implementations in Angular, React and Vue.

Development and self-hosting

In the project directory, you can run:

npm install

Installs all the required packages and it's only needed the first time, and when you update.

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.

Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.

You will also see any lint errors in the console.

npm test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory, ready to be deployed.

Start the app

To start the development server run nx serve builder. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:4200/. Happy coding!

Generate code

If you happen to use Nx plugins, you can leverage code generators that might come with it.

Run nx list to get a list of available plugins and whether they have generators. Then run nx list <plugin-name> to see what generators are available.

Learn more about Nx generators on the docs.

Running tasks

To execute tasks with Nx use the following syntax:

nx <target> <project> <...options>

You can also run multiple targets:

nx run-many -t <target1> <target2>

..or add -p to filter specific projects

nx run-many -t <target1> <target2> -p <proj1> <proj2>

Targets can be defined in the package.json or projects.json. Learn more in the docs.

Want better Editor Integration?

Have a look at the Nx Console extensions. It provides autocomplete support, a UI for exploring and running tasks & generators, and more! Available for VSCode, IntelliJ and comes with a LSP for Vim users.
