gridappsd/glimpse-frontend repository overview

⁠GLIMPSE Frontend

React frontend (served by nginx) for GLIMPSE⁠, a graph-based desktop application to visualize and update GridLAB-D power grid models.

This image serves the GLIMPSE UI and talks to the gridappsd/glimpse-backend image over its API/socket endpoint. Pair the two using the project's docker-compose.yml⁠.

⁠Quick start

git clone http://github.com/pnnl/GLIMPSE
cd GLIMPSE
docker compose up --build

Then open http://localhost:5173.

⁠Configuration

Key environment variables:

• API_URL - URL the browser uses to reach the backend (default http://127.0.0.1:5052)
• API_TOKEN - must match the backend's GLIMPSE_API_TOKEN (baked into env.js at container start)

See the README⁠ for full details.
