Re: GSOC 2019 proposal - Dashboard
Hi Carlton, Thanks for your feedback. I think it will be a complete project that can implemented in 3 months time. My idea is like setting up an interface like wordpress in django. The only difference I thought of is Wordpress does it from the front end. I have thought of it to be implemented from the backend single line code. Let us say, the code for dashboard may be, d = dashboard(style,color,font,no_of_sections,section_custom_name_list) this style means one of the available styles in the repository of styles for that page that will be created now each section can be customized by using section id or name : like d.section_id.name = 'no of issues' d.section_id.table = issues d.section_id.sql_query=sql query d.section_id.color = "colour_code" d.section_id.font = "font_name" d.section_id.width = width d.section_id.height = height *this width height can be bootstrap height width as well We can add as many features as we want to customize the selection. Later on, we can extend this to custom pages. Custom sections, Custom links, presence and absence of picture and Way to populate the picture carousel and other customizable and hide able fields . So automated that an user can just install django and make a web page of his/her need in a few hours.

Hey Carlton, Thanks for your feedback.

Re: GSoC 2019 Project Idea
Hi Parth. I'm guessing this would be out of scope for Django: it's sounds like the sort of functionality that we prefer to live in third-party apps, rather than in Django itself. (It sounds like a good enough idea — there are plenty of Jekyll, or other static, sites out there, but just not something for core.) As I just posted elsewhere, I'm looking to work on the GSoC stuff over the next couple of weeks.

Re: GSOC 2019 proposal - Dashboard
Hi Mainak. Initially I'm inclined to say this would fall into one or both of two problems: 1. Too ambitious: phenomenally difficult to build this within the project time. 2. Out of scope for Django: it's sounds like the sort of functionality that we prefer to live in third-party apps, rather than in Django itself. Do you have any kind of prototype code in place? A rough demo might give more insight into both these points. In general, for GSoC, I want to look at the project ideas, the org profile, and such over the next couple of weeks.
