Key Technologies Used in the GUI

The frontend of the DPM leverages React JS to provide a fast, flexible, and stable interface designed for dynamic data handling. React’s component-based structure allows us to break the interface into reusable parts, making it easy to add new features, organize complex data, and deliver real-time updates. This approach ensures that users experience quick, responsive interactions, which are essential for managing policies smoothly and efficiently.

Core Libraries and Frameworks

The application is built using a combination of powerful libraries and frameworks to ensure a robust and user-friendly experience:

  • Material UI (MUI): Provides a rich set of pre-designed components for building a consistent and visually appealing user interface.
  • Formik: Used for form state management, simplifying the handling of complex forms and user input.
  • Yup: Works alongside Formik to provide schema-based validation, ensuring data integrity before submission.
  • Keycloak: Manages user authentication and authorization, ensuring secure access to the application.
  • Axios: Handles HTTP requests, enabling seamless communication with the backend.
  • React Router DOM: Manages client-side routing, allowing for a smooth and dynamic navigation experience.
  • Recharts: Used for data visualization, providing interactive and customizable charts for policy management.

Custom Components and Design

Alongside Material UI’s pre-designed components, we developed custom elements specifically for policy management. These include tailored forms, confirmation dialogs, and layout adjustments, all crafted to provide a streamlined and intuitive user experience. The combination of React, Material UI, and our custom-built components gives the UI a cohesive and professional look, while remaining adaptable to various user needs. This flexibility allows us to maintain a high standard of functionality and usability throughout the application.

Development Tools

The project is supported by a range of development tools and utilities:

  • React Scripts: Simplifies the setup and configuration of the development environment.
  • Testing Libraries: Includes @testing-library/react, @testing-library/jest-dom, and @testing-library/user-event for comprehensive unit and integration testing.
  • ESLint: Ensures code quality and consistency by enforcing coding standards.

Conclusion

By leveraging these technologies, the DPM’s GUI delivers a secure, intuitive, and highly functional user experience. The combination of React, Material UI, and custom components ensures that the interface is both powerful and easy to use, meeting the needs of modern policy management systems.
