Developing a Multi Screen Web Interface -- such as the Bloomberg terminal

I am looking to build a web based app that needs a multi-screen interface.

To make that possible I'm looking for the following:

  1. Any front end libraries that make that possible -- for example jQuery plugins.
  2. Any design patterns I should look at.
  3. Any successful open source implementations of web based multi-screen interfaces.

You should look into the Composite and Decorator patterns. In fact, the case study (the Lexi word processor) in the GoF book (Design Patters, Gamma et al) is highly relevant - building up a hierarchy of UI elements which may or may not hold a collection of widgets within them.

The case study gives a great jumping off point for this kind of UI design and covers many of the things you might not think to consider.

Have a look at https://golden-layout.com/ , it has build in support for popping-out components into new browser windows.
