Hi devs,

On 
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ApplicationDevelopmentBestPractices
 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
