Just wanted to know, is this like a separate standalone page or do you want to make it into a Gadget (like Twinkle)? If it’s standalone you can use Vue or React or any other front end framework, but if you want to make it as a Gadget you’re going to have to do a bit more work to make it work. Especially if you want to be like Twinkle and add extra buttons to the existing UI.
