I have been trying to explore enigma.js for quite some time and now I got some time and space to explore it in detail while creating an enigma js example application. The approach is to create a client module and a server module.

I develop this app using ReactJS for the front end and Node JS for the backend. The server will be accessed by the client using api calls. This series will be a progressive one. I will post new items as I complete them. If I want to revise anything on the previous post, I may update them as well and ensure that I communicate it.

Structure of the series is as below

1. ReactJS Client setup
   1. Basic setup
   2. Qlik sense enigma.js – example – Setup React JS Client – part 2
2. Node JS/ Express JS server setup and routes
3. Enigma.js – Collect details about existing components
   1. Create and open session, List Apps
   2. Qlik sense enigma js example – Get App Objects List
   3. Get Definitions of App Objects
4. Enigma.js – Make changes to the existing components – coming soon
5. Enigma.js – Create new components
   1. Create App Part 1 – Server API , Part 2 – Client using React JS
   2. Create Sheet Part 1 – Server API

Once I complete the first 2 steps, I may switch between the other sections as needed, when building the app.

What I build?

As of now I do not have a specific features in mind. I start creating the building blocks with enigma.js. As and when I complete I might create a feature out of these building blocks. Any suggestion is welcome. At anytime, the latest source code is updated in the following link.
