 # UOA Repository Manager UI
 
+
+
+## Introduction
+## Architecture
+
+
+
+## Building
+
+The frontend has been developed and tested using Angular 12.
+
+#### Manual build
+
+###### Requirements:
+- [Node.js version 16](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v16.16.0)
+
+###### Build Instructions:
+Follow the instructions below to download the source code and build the application.
+For more information about building an Angular app you can refer to the official documentation: [Building and serving Angular apps](https://angular.io/guide/build#building-and-serving-angular-apps).
+
+1. Clone the repository and move inside the directory
+   <br> `git clone https://code-repo.d4science.org/MaDgIK/uoa-repository-manager-ui.git && cd uoa-repository-manager-ui`
+2. Install Angular dependencies
+   <br> `npm install`
+3. Build Angular app
+   <br> `ng build --configuration production`
+   <br> Produces the directory "dist/**uoa-repository-manager-ui**" which contains the compiled files.
+<br>
+<br>
+
+## Deployment
+
+### Prerequisites
+- Nginx
+
+### Instructions
+To deploy the Frontend app:
+1. Make sure that you have successfully built and installed the application on Nginx (or another Web Server).
+2. _Start_ or _reload_ the Web Server service.
+   <br>e.g. `systemctl start nginx` or `systemctl reload nginx`
+
+## Installation
+
+### Prerequisites
+- [Nginx](https://www.nginx.com/) (or another Web Server like [Apache HTTP Server](https://httpd.apache.org/))
+
+### Dependencies
+[...]
+
+
+<br>
+<br>
+
+
+### Installation
+
+#### Nginx Configuration
+You have to create a [Server Block configuration](https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/server_blocks/) that will point to the directory "dist/**uoa-repository-manager-ui**" created by [building manually](./building.md#manual-build) the webapp.
+It must also be configured as a reverse proxy for the Backend Application (to serve it under the path '/api') and for the list of [Dependencies](#dependencies) of the project.
+
+See the example below:
+```nginx
+server {
+    server_name                 ...
+    access_log                  ...
+    root                        /path/to/uoa-repository-manager-ui;  # the directory of the application
+
+    location / {
+        try_files $uri$args $uri$args/ /index.html /index.php;
+    }
+
+    location ~* \.(eot|ttf|woff)$ {
+        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
+    }
+
+    # reverse proxy configuration for the backend application
+    location /api {
+        proxy_set_header        Host $host;
+        proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+        proxy_pass              <?>;
+        proxy_read_timeout      3600;
+        proxy_send_timeout      3600;
+    }
+
+    [...]
+}
+```
+
+Lastly, we would advice to validate the configuration of the Nginx to make sure it does not contain errors.
+<br>Execute `nginx -t` with elevated permissions to perform a validation. If the test is successful you can move on to [deploying](./deployment.md#frontend) the application.
