README.txt

A web interface to an NMDC hub.

Chat in real-time on your NMDC hub using a web browser. This project forks and deprecates my earlier `dcwebui2` project since Go seems to use less memory than node.

Written in Golang

Tags: nmdc

=UPGRADING FROM DCWEBUI2=

- The configuration file content is identical between nmdc-webfrontend 1.0.0 and dcwebui2 1.3.0, but please now ensure it's valid JSON instead of arbitrary javascript. This means no assignment, use double-quoted strings, and no comments.
- Future changes to the configuration file since nmdc-webfrontend 1.0.0 are backward compatible (see the changelog for more details).
