Aikau is a UI framework that was developed by Alfresco and included in the Alfresco 4.2 release. It was expanded and developed further Alfresco One 5.0. Unlike the majority of Alfresco source code it can be found in its own GitHub repository (https://github.com/Alfresco/Aikau). The project is managed on its own JIRA board (https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=322&view=planning). There are weekly backwards compatible releases.
The framework consists of a method of loading and defining UI widgets and also includes the widgets that have been built using it.
