This canister generates a front-end UI for any canister running on the Internet Computer.
The backend didjs is build with the Rust CDK and the Candid crate to convert did file into JavaScript.
The frontend ui fetches the Candid interface from the running canister (currently only canisters built by Motoko expose the Candid interface) and renders the UI based on the interface signature.
You need dfx, cargo, npm and wasm-opt for building the canister.
cd ui/
npm install
dfx start --background
dfx canister create --all
dfx build
dfx canister install --allOpen the ui canister in a browser and supply the id parameter in the URL to render a specific canister,
e.g., localhost:8000/?canisterId=ui-canister-id&id=target-canister-id for local dev,
or ui-canister-id.ic0.app/?id=target-canister-id for the main network.
