Disable frontend building

Support
#1

Is there a setting/configuration/workaround to disable the building of the frontend files?

Eventually I do intend to use the UI for back office use, but for now I am only focusing on creating a spring rest controller. So being able to turn off the frontend building in the interim would be great.

Looking at build.gradle of freshly created such project,

    implementation 'io.jmix.core:jmix-core-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.data:jmix-eclipselink-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.rest:jmix-rest-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.security:jmix-security-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.security:jmix-security-data-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.localfs:jmix-localfs-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.authserver:jmix-authserver-starter'

    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'

seems like if you comment this out from your UI project, it should work

    implementation 'io.jmix.flowui:jmix-flowui-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.flowui:jmix-flowui-data-starter'
    implementation 'io.jmix.flowui:jmix-flowui-themes'

Play a bit, if it doesn’t work, copy your rest services code to the new rest only project …

Kind regards,
Mladen
