Dynamic user interface framework

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium including instructions that when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:

• parse a definition of a user interface, the definition providing an indication of a plurality of functions and a plurality of rules for a display of content in the user interface, wherein the definition of the user interface is provided in a first markup language according to a defined schema, the definition including a plurality of entry points to access a collection of data, and wherein the at least one rule includes a security rule associating at least one role of a plurality of roles with one of the entry points;
• select a view technology stack from a plurality of view technology stacks, the selected view technology stack providing an interpretation of the definition of the user interface according to a second markup language;
• and
• generate a user interface instance from the definition of the user interface with use of the selected view technology stack, wherein the user interface instance includes renderable content using the second markup language, wherein the functions and the rules define characteristics of the renderable content in the user interface instance, the at least one security rule customizing the display of content and entry points in the user interface dynamically presented to a logged in user of the user interface instance based on the role the user has logged in as to access the collection of data.

A computing apparatus, the computing apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• at least one storage device comprising instructions, which when executed by the at least one processor, configure the at least one processor to:
• parse a definition of a user interface, the definition providing an indication of at least one function and at least one rule for a display of content in the user interface, wherein the definition of the user interface is provided in a first markup language, the definition including a plurality of entry points to access a collection of data, and wherein the at least one rule includes a security rule associating at least one role of a plurality of roles with one of the entry points;
• implement a view technology stack, the view technology stack providing an interpretation of the definition of the user interface in a second markup language;
• and
• generate a user interface instance from the definition of the user interface with use of the view technology stack, the user interface instance providing renderable content using the second markup language, wherein the at least one function and the at least one rule define characteristics of the renderable content in the user interface instance, the at least one security rule customizing the display of content and entry points in the user interface dynamically presented to a logged in user of the user interface instance based on the role the user has logged in as to access the collection of data.
