This page is about creating web apps the ESRI way.

Overview

Entry level: This is from the ArcGIS Server documentation, so it's high level. About web GIS and from that same site, consider this article: Designing basemaps

Options

  1. Publish directly from ArcGIS Pro
  2. Use Web AppBuilder in ArcGIS Online or Portal, see ESRI overview
  3. Use the WebAppBuilderForArcGIS SDK
  4. Use the JavaScript API.

Web AppBuilder

Basically you can run Web AppBuilder on AGO or in Portal, using the version that ESRI installed for you, or you can install it and run it yourself.

ArcGIS Online

I don't care about this option at the moment. I am assuming it's a newer version of whatever we have in AGE Portal 10.6

Portal

This is what I am trying as the starting point.

Content -> Create -> App -> Template | Web AppBuilder

The template option gives you a bunch of templates. I picked Basic Viewer. I added my Taxlots layer and it picked OpenStreetMap as the base layer for me. I wonder how they make it so slow? I can click on a parcel and then eventually it creates a popup with every attribute in it. That's enough for templates.

The Web AppBuilder option launches and offers me tabs "Theme", "Map", "Widget" and "Attribute.

In Theme, I chose "Foldable Theme", then a Style, I chose GREEN because it's nice. I used the first Layout. Layouts don't appear to have names.

In Map, under "Choose web map" I used the "Create Map" option to select my taxlots layer and the OSIP imagery and a grey basemap. I zoomed to the county and set initial extent to "Use current map view". I set visible scales appropriately.

In Widget I chose a random collection of standard widgets. I wonder how I replace the ESRI World Geocoder with my own?

I saved. I launched.

I wonder how I do multiple selections. Drag just zooms. Ctl and Shift and Click don't do it either.

Browser history does not work.

Web AppBuilder SDK

Downloaded and unpacked but not running it yet, coming soon.
