The Sunbird Desktop is the offline-based interface that provides to access & distribution of digital content in areas where Internet connectivity is challenging.
In the portal desktop Gulp is a task runner that uses Node.js as a platform. Gulp purely uses JavaScript code and helps to run front-end tasks and large-scale web applications. It builds system automated tasks like CSS and HTML minification, concatenating library files, and compiling the SASS files.
OpenRAP is more like a repo, where we have a content database which is meant for desktop it's a standalone app that runs mainly offline first. in offline first certain items such as content items, and telemetry user data have to store & when the user log-in it's not online but it will give the data from the pouchdb.
OpenRAP is an open-source initiative to enable communities/stakeholders to easily build and deploy WiFI-enabled resource access points within their community.
It enables applications to store data locally while offline, then synchronize it with CouchDB and compatible servers when the application is back online, keeping the user's data in sync no matter where they next log in.
It contains the env.json file which is responsible for storing the env variable such as token,baseurl, and id that is required in the Desktop from DevOps.
