These files are served by the User Terminal. Here we document the various libraries that are embedded as the first step towards enabling us to create our own implementation. By identifying the third party libraries we can do two things:
- Reproduce the build of the open-source code
- Identify the Starlink specific code
That will enable implemention of a completely new, open-source, interface - and that will allow adding functionality.
- Written in TypeScript
- Uses React
- Uses WebPack
Analysis is done on the un-minified code produced by Firefox developer tools Pretty Print functionality.
At the end of this bundle (around line 294980) is an array of 679 embedded project details and the full texts of their licences. This has been extracted to Javascript-licenses.js - it takes up over 1MiB of space.

Starlink specific code appears to start at line 139882.
These are badly encoded; each language table is around 78KiB in size and contains both English and Translated strings, so English is repeated many times, enlarging the resulting code unnecessarily - especially considering the minification.
