Corail
Collaborative design web application
What is it?
- Created with the aim to include clients in the design process of their projects and ease the interactions with the designers
- Accessible to anyone using an updated browser connected to the internet
- Enables you to create, modify and share your design prototypes on a single online support
Manage all your projects in one place
Gather all your projects on the same application and keep an overall view of their progression using status tags.
A powerful tool to design your prototypes
Create prototypes and structure them in your own way.
Add section, title, paragraph... and even icons (using the popular Font Awesome)!
All in the detail. Use our toolbox to choose the perfect color or adjust the shadow of your elements.
Keep track of all changes in your prototype
Want to keep a history of the work you've done? Look at the timeline of every version of a prototype and travel through time.
Manage your project's workflow
Keep an eye on what still needs to be done for a given project and update a prototype's status with a simple drag and drop gesture.
Share your prototypes
You can export your prototype either as a PDF or as an image and send them to anyone.
Let's get started!
Install the application on your own infrastructure
Corail is available as a Docker image. You can pull it from this registry:registry.gitlab.com/corail/corail-server-containerThe image exposes the application on port 8080 that you will need to map. Below is a sample command that you can use:
docker run -p 80:8080 registry.gitlab.com/corail/corail-server-container
Try a 2 hours demo
You need to have a GitHub account to continue
and authorize the application dply.co which offers free cloud deployment for 2 hours.
About the project
Corail was created as a group project at ISEP in collaboration with Thales Services SAS. We had to write the specifications and build a design web application where designers could create their prototypes and get feedbacks from their clients in an easy way. The project ran over 3 months and ended up with an oral defense.
We were free to use whatever front-end technologies we wanted, so we used AngularJS, Gulp and our homemade SASS stylesheet. Regarding the back-end, we had to build a RESTful API in Java. Therefore we chose Jersey coupled with a MariaDB database.
As we left it, the application is working. However, some parts are missing, such as the authentication system. The prototype creation module also lacks intuitiveness. The source code is available on GitLab if you want to look out it.
Hoping one day that we could resume the project.
Get feedbacks on your work
Team members and clients can see what you do and comment directly any version of your prototype.
