ui frontend module in aem

[AEMLearner-1989]

Hi Team,

We are planning to migrate aem 6.3 code base into the cloud. In cloud, planning to move all the etc/clientlibs(css and js file) to ui forntend module. What are the additional steps that need to be taken care here?

older version of css and js files compile here?

hello @AEMLearner-1989 

1. Adobe suggests to use "Best Practice Analyzer" to have an idea of the changes you need to make for migrating to Cloud.

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-learn/cloud-service/migration/moving-to-a...

2. you might want to move away from the practice of using /etc for clientlibraries. These should be moved to /apps

3. For Client library refresh, if you face any challenges today, please ascertain you have proper steps in place. Deleting dispatcher cache manually is not an option

4. Please have look at caching strategy for Client libs on https://docs.mktossl.com/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/content-delivery...

4. Set up pipelines for deploying ui.frontend module via Cloud manager
