Feast Web UI

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Several things are harder than they should be today:

  • Tag searching / filtering
  • Discovery of feature views / data sources / models
  • Understanding lineage of models are difficult.
  • Understanding what features are available / materialized to the online store
  • Managing features across projects

Describe the solution you'd like
A Feast Web UI that enables discovery of features, data sources, and models across projects.

  • Tests checking that changes to the feast registry protos don't break the web UI (i.e. an integration test that starts up the Feast UI)
  • a feast cli command like feast ui that scans subdirectories for feature_store.yaml and calls feast registry-dump and pipes it to a known location for the web UI to reference. It also should produce the project-list.json that we use for the landing page. This should also start the local web ui server.
  • Improved search bar experience that does type-ahead suggestions on tag names
  • release process that automatically publishes the npm package.

After initial launch

  • A project level description config (e.g. in feature_store.yaml which populates the landing page of a given project in the UI and is output in the "registry" dump)
  • Working across all types
  • Links to e.g. feast-dev documentation (e.g a ? that shows details on hover)
  • Flagging system for different UI components
  • Custom plugin system
  • Having a UI that dynamically updates + re-syncs against the registry file
  • Migration towards perhaps https://github.com/protobufjs/protobuf.js/ instead of zod to parse data
  • There's a "statistics" page in feature views that needs data to be populated. It's hidden by default behind a flag, but once we start pulling sample data and statistics in generating the json dump, this can be re-enabled
  • Cleaned up UI for the data sets that gives information about the declared expectations
  • UI for the data sets that highlights validation errors in a saved dataset
