UCE Starter

site/examples/uce-starter/ is a UCE-native port of the PHP web-app-starter/.

It keeps the PHP starter around as reference while mirroring the same broad structure:

• index.uce as the front controller
• views/ for routed page content
• components/ for reusable UI building blocks
• themes/, js/, and img/ for theme templates and static assets

This port intentionally leans on UCE's component layer rather than treating components as a compatibility shim. The page shell, nav/footer chrome, theme switcher, dashboard blocks, workspace primitives, and marketing sections are all rendered through component().

Theme rendering is split the same way as the PHP starter:

• themes/common/page.blank.uce
• themes/common/page.json.uce
• themes/<theme>/page.html.uce

Those page templates are the authoritative shell layer, and in the UCE port they are proper COMPONENT(...) units rather than standalone page entrypoints. index.uce resolves the routed view, captures the main fragment, then hands off once into themes/common/page.*.uce or themes/<theme>/page.html.uce, matching the PHP starter's page-layer flow without an extra shell implementation.

The example uses query-string routing in the same style as the PHP starter:

• index.uce
• index.uce?page1
• index.uce?themes&theme=portal-dark
• index.uce?workspace/projects

The demo account pages use a small file-backed user store under /tmp/uce-starter-data/ with session-based login state.
