Hi,

Are there any good lookin' ElasticSearch front ends/UIs available or being  
worked on?  
I found a couple, but they were all kind of rough/alpha looking.

Jörg, I know you've got something git stashed that you quickly whipped out  
last week. Admit it! 😉

## Thanks, Otis

Lol!!!

What do you mean by UI?  
Administrative UI like Head, paramedic or bigdesk?  
Or something for end users like what we did with [www.scrutmydocs.org](http://www.scrutmydocs.org) ?

Also, the [http://reclinejs.com/demos/](http://reclinejs.com/demos/) project can display data from  
Elasticsearch.

I think I was onto Jörg, he suddenly got quiet 😉

But yes, more like [scrutmydocs.org](http://scrutmydocs.org), except just the UI without all the  
rest. Just search box with SERP elements - hits, facets, maybe graph, that  
sort of stuff.

Karel, thanks, I'll look at [http://reclinejs.com/demos/](http://reclinejs.com/demos/)

Sorry Otis, for late responding...

Well, I have a UI, completely wrapped into XML. Slick? No. It's crappy if  
you ask me. Here's the reason why. First I must obey to several XML  
standards ("searchRetrieve" formerly known as SRU/Z39.50,  
[http://docs.oasis-open.org/search-ws/searchRetrieve/v1.0/csprd01/part0-overview/searchRetrieve-v1.0-csprd01-part0-overview.html](http://docs.oasis-open.org/search-ws/searchRetrieve/v1.0/csprd01/part0-overview/searchRetrieve-v1.0-csprd01-part0-overview.html),  
and MODS, [http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/](http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/)). And second, I have to follow  
government law for accessibility (which is a good thing). I transform  
JSON-ES in Jersey REST to XML then to XHTML, avoiding obtrusive Javascript,  
all with XSL. XSL is also a method and syntax my coworkers understand.

Sure, beyond that, I want to add some slick Java UI using GWT, Vaadin,  
Bootstrap, for the rest of us. But it's not there. I'm alo not a UI guy ☹

One focus of my work is implementing new tools for moving the traditional  
library catalog standards to Linked Data. Not limited to Germany, there is  
a world wide community growing. Even the Library of Congress is opening the  
development of a new Bibframe effort to replace MARC by Linked Data and to  
connect library catalog data to the web. This is really exciting, because  
there is JSON-LD for Linked Data. Indexing JSON-LD into Elasticsearch is  
really straightforward for me. There is an evolving W3C standard  
[http://json-ld.org](http://json-ld.org) that will also extend the power of [http://bibjson.org](http://bibjson.org)

Great times ahead for aggregating and searching LAM data, Freebase, and all  
such kind of metadata by using Elasticsearch 🙂

Best regards,

Jörg
