| Work on a browser-based staff client is [[dev:browser_staff:dev_sprints|in process]]. Circulation features were released as a preview with Evergreen 2.8(?), and the full browser client is [[faqs:evergreen_roadmap:2.12|expected to be released]] with Evergreen 2.12 in Spring/Summer of 2017. XUL interfaces are being converted to AngularJS, while Dojo interfaces are being embedded in the new client with hopes to convert them to Angular later on. | The Evergreen browser-based (or "web") staff client is now the main client, and the XUL client will be removed from Evergreen releases as of version 3.2 (expected Fall 2018). Circulation features were released as a preview with Evergreen 2.8(?), and the full browser client was released with Evergreen 3.0 in October 2017. XUL interfaces have been converted to AngularJS, while most Dojo interfaces have been embedded in the web client with hopes to convert them to AngularJS eventually. (NOTE: We are making plans to upgrade from [[dev:browser_staff:angular5|AngularJS to Angular 5]].) |

| The full Staff Client is currently a XULRunner application built on the XULRunner 3 series, which is equivalent to the Firefox 3 series. The staff client is a combination of local and remote XUL pages, JavaScript, and the OPAC itself. It is compatible with both the JSPAC and the TPAC, and also loads a number of interfaces that work like the JSPAC and/or TPAC. Some of these interfaces can be easily used outside of the staff client itself, others expect to be loaded from within it. | Development for the web Staff Client can involve AngularJS, JavaScript, (X)HTML, and OPAC development. Perhaps all at the same time, depending on your goals. |
