An SDK for the development of web-based applications, aiding consistency in branding and UX within Ericsson

• Web Component based
• Web Native Technologies
• Helping to drive the future direction of UIs within Ericsson
• Providing technical support to other developers (Ericsson Community)
• 20+ repositories of common UI components
• Cloud Native Ready
• Micro frontend architecture
• Storybook showcases
• Google Lit, Open-wc, Playwright, rollup, importmaps

Security Master (E-UI SDK)

Point of contact and responsible person with regards to any security matters on E-UI SDK framework

• Rapidly dealing with Security Issues faced by the team
• Providing support to the Ericsson Community on UI security matters
• OWASP Top 10 analysis

Model Driven UI
Feb 2025 - present
Project looking to provide and developing a solution that allows developers with little or no experience in Web technologies to develop feature rich UIs from simple JSON.

• Advised Architects that an off the shelf 3pp was not viable.
• Developing an In-house solution, which is purely data driven and adheres to the JSON 2020-12 standard.
• Being developed as a reusable npm library, compatible with native UI forms and can be used as a standalone GUI builder.

OpenSDK

Sep 2024 - Apr 2025

Worked to prepare the E-UI SDK for release to extranet users to enable them to develop their own application

• Setting up Azure feeds (npm registry) to host release packages

Server Side Pagination

Oct 2024 - Jan 2025

Overhauled the E-UI SDK table library to add in support for Server Side Pagination

• Lightweight solution that would allow large data sets in excess of 1 million records to be supported

Set up analytics for E-UI SDK

Nov 2023

Set up Matamo instance to capture user metrics from the Framework's documentation site

Replacement of JavaScript bundler used by E-UI SDK

Jan 2023 - Oct 2023

The E-UI SDK had been using Snowpack which was no longer supported

• 5 potential replacements examined (rollup, Vite, Webpack, Esbuild, Parcel)
• Backwards compatible solution developed with rollup, avoided costly architectural redesign in multiple large scale Ericsson products
• Removed limitations preventing ES2022 or higher code standards from being used
• Improved stability, faster build times, more optimized builds
• Enhancements in developers experience with the reduction of manual configuration required

E-UI SDK Interoperability with Angular

Oct 2022

Worked with an Angular Developer from Ericsson Canada looking at the feasibility of integrating E-UI SDK common UI component into an Angular environment

• Successfully developed an integration guide on how to install and use these component in Angular
• Proved the fundamental technical decisions of the SDK were sound and that it is compatible with other publicly available frameworks (e.g. React)

Redevelopment of E-UI SDK Framework to a Micro Frontend architecture

Jan 2021 - Jun 2022

• New SPA app shell developed
• New plug 'n' play discovery mechanisms
• Phased out 3pp module loaders, user native ESM loaders
• Alignment to current web standards
• Migration of test framework to open-wc testing (designed for Web Components)
• Developed routing mechanism for application switching within the app shell

Migration of Inhouse Package Management System

Feb 2019 - Apr 2019

The UI-SDK used a non-standard package management system (CDT registry)

• Migrated registry from CouchDB to Ericsson Artifactory instance due to failing hardware/servers on original hosting service
• Overcame incompatibilities between inhouse APIs and Artifactory's which only supported widely used systems (e.g. npm, maven, etc...)
• Retro-fitted all associated tooling to work with Artifactory and avoided a complete redesign of existing CI/CD practices that would have affected 100s of development teams

User Interface Software Development Kit (YMER UI-SDK)

Sep 2016 - Apr 2021

An SDK for the development of web-based applications, aiding consistency in branding and UX within Ericsson

• 30+ repositories of common components
