BuckBoost Demo Project

Introduction

This is a basic demo project designed to showcase what Scala.js can do for the replacement of the many Java applets of the ETHZ iPES webpage. In this project the Java applet BuckBoost was reasonably closely recreated in Scala.js to showcase the improvements to be gained by switching from many standalone Java applets to one singular, central library.

Running the demo

To see the demo, clone the repo, install SBT, and run sbt in the root directory of the project. Then type fastOptJS into SBT will download all necessary dependencies and run a webserver, so the generated webpage/JavaScript documents will be available under a localhost link.

Viewing the Scaladoc

To see the Scaladoc, open target/scala-2.11/api/index.html. To regenerate it in case I forget, type doc into the SBT console.
