Update docs theme section to customization

The themes section of the webui style guide contained a section named
theme. This section also included information about the environmental
builds. The name was misleading and confusing, so we determined in the
GUI Design Work Group to update the section name.

webui-vue

webui-vue is a web-based user interface for the OpenBMC firmware stack built on Vue.js.

Hold on... What happened to phosphor-webui?

phosphor-webui was built on AngularJS and AngularJS goes End of Life June 30, 2021, this repository is its replacement.

When will this new Vue.js application reach feature parity with phosphor-webui?

Several, mostly minor, features remain for feature parity. See GitHub Issues label:phosphor-webui-feature-parity for the complete list.

Why will this application be better?

As mentioned, this application is built using Vue.js, a modern open-source Model-View-ViewModel JavaScript framework supported by an active community and strong documentation. It has been architected to allow organizations to easily update the theme to support their brand. This rewrite takes advantage of front-end development best practices and does not suffer from some of the anti-patterns that exist in phosphor-webui today.

Should I switch to webui-vue from phosphor-webui?

That is up to you. Several companies have switched.

webui-vue although still missing a few features that were in phosphor-webui, as mentioned above, has the following additional features:

  • Ability to easily theme to meet brand guidelines
  • Accessibility
  • Full Redfish
  • Improved user experience based on user feedback
  • Language translation-ready
  • Modern front-end framework with an active community and future development roadmap

How can I get involved?
