Originally developed to meet the requirements of the high-energy physics experiment ATLAS, Rucio has been continuously enhanced to support diverse scientific communities. Since 2016, Rucio has orchestrated multiple exabytes of data access and data transfers globally. + +The [Rucio WebUI](https://github.com/rucio/webui) is a Next.js application utilized by various users within collaborating communities to access, monitor, and manage their distributed data. Key features of the Rucio WebUI include: + +- **SDK for Streaming:** Facilitates seamless data streaming from the Rucio server to page components, ensuring a responsive user interface. +- **Typed in TypeScript with Generics:** Strict typing ensures code integrity and enhances development efficiency. +- **Accessibility and Responsiveness:** Designed with accessibility and responsiveness in mind, ensuring usability across various devices. +- **Testing and Stability:** Extensive testing ensures robustness and reliability in all components. +- **Feature Toggles:** Dynamic feature toggles provide flexibility in enabling or disabling specific functionalities as needed. +- **Component Library:** Utilizes Storybook and TailwindCSS to enhance development speed and consistency. + +## Tasks + +1. **Upgrade to Next.js 15, React 19, TailwindCSS 4.x:** + - Migrate the existing codebase to Next.js 15 to leverage the latest features and performance improvements. + - Utilize Server Side Rendering and React Query in Client Side Components to enhance data-fetching capabilities. + - Migrate `tailwind.config.js` to new CSS based configuration for TailwindCSS 4.x. + +2. **Enhance User Experience for Site Administrators and Operators:** + - Currently the WebUI focusses on List/Get views with the exception of allowing users to Create Rules. Add features to Create/Edit resources for site administrators and operational experts. + - Investigate legacy views in the previous [Flask application]() and migrate them to the new WebUI. + - Redesign these views to be more user-friendly, incorporating feedback from site administrators and operators. + +3. **Migrate Authentication to NextAuth (Auth.js):** + - Transition existing x509 and user/password authentication mechanisms to NextAuth. + - Ensure compatibility with various authentication flows, including OAuth and OpenID Connect. + - Develop an RBAC system to ensure users have access only to functionalities relevant to their roles, enhancing security and usability. + +4. **Transition to a Monorepo Structure:** + - Migrate the Rucio WebUI to a monorepo structure to improve code organization and facilitate the sharing of common components across different projects. + +## Requirements + +**Mandatory:** +- Proficiency in React.js and Next.js +- Experience with TailwindCSS +- Strong knowledge of JavaScript (ECMAScript 6) and TypeScript +- Familiarity with Python 3 and Flask +- Proficiency with Linux, Git, and Docker + +**Good to Have:** +- Understanding of NX Monorepos +- Experience with AGGrid Data Tables +- Experience with GitHub Actions +- Knowledge of HTTP REST APIs +- Familiarity with OpenID Connect and x509 protocols + +## Expected Results + +By the end of GSoC 2025, we expect to have a revamped Rucio WebUI that: +- Is upgraded to Next.js 15 with integrated React Query. +- Utilizes both client and server-side components as per React 19's stable features. +- Supports TailwindCSS 4.0 for a modern design system. +- Offers enhanced user experiences tailored for site administrators and operators. +- Employs NextAuth for streamlined authentication processes. +- Implements a robust RBAC system. +- Adopts a monorepo structure for improved code organization and component sharing. + +## Mentors + +- **[Mayank Sharma](mailto:mayank.sharma@cern.ch)** (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) +- [Martin Barisits](mailto:martin.barisits@cern.ch) (CERN) + +## Links + +1.
