Hi, I summarized our workshop on the workshop's wiki page[1]. I also uploaded a mindmap in which I tried to mark potential changes for STK 1.4 (green) and STK 2.0 (red).
Thanks a lot for all the valuable input! [1] http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/DEV/STK+2.0+Workshop Mindmap: STK 2.0 Workshop - Overview.png STK 2.0 Workshop.png Summery as found on the wiki page: We will improve the framework separate framework templates/paragraphs and the base framework should get separated, the set of base templates should be smaller, extras as Glossary, FAQ, ... will go into an extra module less paragraphs combine paragraphs like the various teaser groups into a single one. Magnolia 5.0 will support such dialogs in a better way, alternatively we could introduce tabs in the paragraph selection dialog The STK is on a good path, but few things are to complex and should get improved. imaging the CSS selector based system is not transparent enough, we prefer a less flexible solution resources use same pattern as for template scripts: list of loaders (webapp, workspace, jar) support binaries far future caching align with files in mgnl-resources themes better deploy process (zip upload) configurable themes (few parameters, like color and font) simpler base CSS (separate functional and style) The focus is more on simplifying things rather than adding new features, still there are some we should mention here: ajax provide a best practice example using the new direct-paragraph-request feature social media integration to youtube, twitter, facebook, flickr templates redirect, structure, iframe, ... And beyond: we collected ideas which will be realized while developing 5.0, some of them are well known but requested so often that I still mention them here: developer mode show developer related information: script executed, direct link to script dialog to edit paragraph definitions (show script, direct editing) usability show template, paragraph name in the bars or info-box direct upload to DMS (and preview) and suppor for search in the selection dialog execute actions as activation directly in the page view create page -> select template -> open dialog -> save creates page visualization in paragraph selection list Cheers - Philipp ---------------------------------------------------------------- For list details see http://www.magnolia-cms.com/home/community/mailing-lists.html To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <[email protected]> ----------------------------------------------------------------
