Is your feature request related to a problem?
it's a little frustrating not having enough means to customize the web interface. today, it is only possible with react, and it is only possible to do this blindly, as there is not much documentation available about it.
Describe the solution you'd like
the best solution I can imagine for this is to expose and document a complete REST API that a web client can consume, independently, being able to log in and get all the information, data and all the rest of the packages. this would make unnecessary the need for prior knowledge or compatibility of specific frameworks.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I thought about documenting ways to create the interfaces using the most popular frameworks, but that would be too much work and difficult to maintain. the idea of "transparent" and well documented api is better and more practical.
Additional context
when we talk about a custom interface, react is not always completely useful, because everything depends on the front-end (and sometimes we want to have control through the back-end, and in the current version this is not possible). it's good to have enough flexibility to guide according to the company's requirements, for example, and the best way to do this without requiring prior knowledge of possibilities is by providing a REST API through which you can perform all possible actions. this gives anyone the possibility to do everything as they want according to their own requirements.
