Hi Charles,
FYI, I already raised a Jira about the Karaf WebConsole.
For the 3.0.0, I plan to make important enhancements on the WebConsole.
The fist step is to update the look'n feel (CSS, some content, etc).
The second step is to add new features presents in the shell but not in
the WebConsole (diagnostics, etc).
The third step is to refactore the WebConsole, maybe using a new
framework (Vaadin or Pax Wicket) and a complete new frontend.
Regards
JB

Hi,
This week-end, I have spend some time on Apache Felix& Karaf
WebConsole code. What I have discovered make me very unhappy and
frustrated because the project(s) lack of structure, complicate the
development of screens and decrease development productivity (html
code is mixed in javascript, json variables are set everywhere in the
code and use in several of javascript functions, no template is used
to render html pages, locale is not used to translate text, ....).
I have no idea about what is planned to do for the future (Karaf 3.0),
if we will continue to use Apache Felix WebConsole or create our own
web console, but a reflexion about which Web frameworks, Ajax
Javascript should take place to simplify development lifecycle.
