This is the web application to test the simplification libraries on different devices. It is implemented as a npm project. To build the project and run the developent server npm and nodejs are required.

• Install dependencies: npm install
• Run the development server: npm run serve
• Build the app: npm run build

Structure

Important files:

• .babelrc: Configuration of the transpiler "babel"
• .prettierrc: Configuration of the code formatter "Prettier"
• package.json: Listing project information, scripts and dependencies
• webpack.config.js Configuration of the asset bundler "webpack"

Important folders:

• public: Static files. Entrypoints for pages. Stylesheets
• results: The prepared results in json format. The index.js gathers all for importing them in JavaScript.
• src: JavaScript source files

Structure of the JavaScript source files

There are three entry points for the three web pages built:

• index.js: The main app for benchmarking.
• loadChart.js: Loading a previously saved chart file to display the interactive chart.
• results.js: Interactive overview for the prepared results

loadChart.js and results.js are mostly self-contained or only require external dependencies. Via index.js the other JavaScript files are imported.

Folders in the src folder:

• benchmarkCases: Implementation of the several cases that are benchmarked
• benchmarks: The three benchmark types and the benchmark suite.
• components: The React UI-components
• data: The three data sets.
