PLAID Layout GUI Web Application

The PLAID Webb GUI currently supports the following features:

• Adding experimental data to a form and submitting it to generate a multiplate layout
• Downloading a form config file (JSON) and uploading it again to prepopulate the form
• Uploading a dzn file to bypass the form and directly generate a multiplate layout
• Uploading a previously computed layout (JSON) to view it again

Testing the GUI

1. Clone or fork the repository
2. Start the development servers, make sure you're on the develop branch and setup the docker container by running

$ docker-compose up --build

or

$ docker-compose up --build --force-recreate

in the root folder for the application.

3. Go to localhost:3000 and click on the Tool option in the sidebar menu
4. You can now test the form and the other functionalities!

NOTE: Make sure your Docker configuration allows for enough access to memory. The GUI might otherwise fail in some examples.
