Web Development

To develop the web-frontend, you'll need to first compile the JavaScript version of iam-policy-json-to-terraform. make web-build will do that, generating a web.js file. Include it and it'll expose a convert(policyName,jsonString) function in the global namespace.

Currently, the complete web-frontend is plain HTML, JS and CSS, all within web/index.html. Edit or refine as needed.

End-To-End Tests for the web frontend exist as TestCafe tests in web_test.js and can be run using make web-e2e.
