with that FRAMESET you define how big area in pixels (px) or percent (%) is used for each frame area

    Alternative to frames is iframe. It means you can use divs, css top/left/width/height to position iframe anywhere in the page.

      Well, you seem to like Angular. According to this webpage: https://angular-2-training-book.rangle.io/components Angular compoment that embeds Wekan could for example look like this:

      angular.module('ngcourse')
      .component('ngcHelloComponent', {
      bindings: { name: '=' },
      template: '<span><iframe src="https://wekan.example.com/b/abcd1234" title="Wekan"></iframe></span>',
      controller: MyComponentCtrl
      });

        where src= is URL to your Wekan board, copied from your webbrowser URL area

          in that that template, maybe <span></span> is not necessary, only <iframe> tags are

              Yes, if it does work like above. But I have not used Angular. I found that above from Angular documention how to make Angular component. I don't know does it help you in any way, does it work with your other Angular components, you can test yourself. If it does not work as Angular component, you can try above way of using frames or iframe.

                For that Wekan Angular component, you can place it anywhere in webpage similarly like any other Angular component.

                  pretty sure that is spot on (angular component. I find angular more flexible than react and react iframe works great as a through manipulation.

                    Just to make this clear though, the api and web hooks work great to create widgets and delete them but not for the most part to edit them inside wekan to correct your outboard system databases, meaning if you rename a board or swimlane or card through the wekan portal you get nothing back from any webhook so your system and wekan can drift apart. Most of the PUT api endpoints are not there either so if you edit something in your based program its not usually possible to update (edit) an existing wekan widget (card, board, etc) unless you write directly to the mongo db underneath wekan.

                      the only solution missing to make full bidirectional editing between wekan and our hosting app is by "watching" mongo collections for changes and the snap deployment version of wekan is on a version on mongodb too old to support "watching" db collection changes as a means to provide a edit a webhook like edit update from wekan outward.

                        Well, plan is to sometime add more API calls and Outgoing Webhooks, and also update MongoDB database to newer version.

                                          Do you have some existing big Angular application? Or are you creating new application? I'm just thinking, you have angular-in-react. Have you used Angular or React for some years already? Because if you are creating a new application, it would be much easier to do with just HTML+CSS+Javascript+PHP as you are already familiar with. Usually Angular and React are used for big single page applications and using those is just too much complexity if you are trying to use just frames+HTML+CSS+JS+PHP.

                                            For integration, do you have some plan how it should work? For example, when Wekan card is moved from one list to another list, should something happen then, for example card moved to another board?

                                              For any new project, it's much faster to use those programming languages you already know.
