Hi devs,
On http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ApplicationDevelopmentBestPra… we
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

+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).

Results: everyone agreed and I’ve now added it
to http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ApplicationDevelopmentBestPra…
So we now need to be careful to implement this and when it’s not done we can point to that
best practice :)
Thanks
