This documentation is the interesting part for administrators and developers and should explain how lux can be installed, configured and how does it work. In addition we want to give you some hints how to extend lux with your own workflow triggers or workflow actions.
Lux is build to use asynchronical techniques and without the need of any USER_INT function to also use lux together with staticfilecache extension for high performance on your TYPO3 websites.
There is no need to use a JS framework like jQuery - Lux just uses vanilla JS - also for the lightbox implementation.
But TYPO3 should run in composer mode to allow the loading of additional packages (see Installation for more details).
Tracking and doing workflow stuff in frontend needs JavaScript to be enabled in the visitors browser. Some functions are disabled if the visitor is also logged in into backend at the same time (to avoid misleading data). It's possible for visitors to opt out (with the opt-out plugin) or to use the do not track settings in their browser. Lux will respect this settings in every case.
Every visitor has an individual fingerprint, based on his hard- and software. This anonymous hash is used to recognize the visitor in future visits. This hash will be used for tracking and identification.
There are some functional settings - saved to localstorage in browser which are:
