+1 in general, but depends on the application. The gadget needs to make
sense to be put on the Dashboard. This thread is very similar to the need
of providing Panels for Applications (especially since Flamingo is panel
oriented).

Hi devs,
On
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ApplicationDevelopmentBestPra… list
some app dev best practices. I'm proposing to add one more bullet
point which is that apps bundle one or several (but at least one) Dashboard
Gadget (technically a Macro) so that users can easily add a view of the app
on the home page (in their dashboard).
For example:
* FAQ app already provides a {{faq}} gadget to list all entries for a
given FAQ
app
* Index app already provides a {{document}}
gadget to list all documents
matching some criteria
* Blog app doesn't currently provide such a
gadget (it provides a
velocity macro but that's not a gadget)
* Forum app should provide a {{forums}} gadget
too to list all forums
and a {{forum}} one to list entries from a given forum
* etc
WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent
