Hi Guys, We are thinking about how the *new* developer console must work and which features it must include and which not.
The current developer console is trying to have/handle all: system information, terminal, log viewer, memory stats, etc. and sometimes it takes a lot of time to do some calcs for every task, and maybe it's not necessary to keep all into DevConsole. Here's a basic proposal about what the *new* console *can be*: No more developer console, get a developer environment composed by: 1) Terminal-Activity, included by default in sugar but hided from the activities launcher menu. Can be activated with some key binding as 'alt + 9'. 2) Create a simple Shell View with system information as: kernel version, build version, Serial Number, Activities information (bundle size, author, version...), CPU usage, presence service, etc 3) Memory Analysis acivity: An activity based on developer console where is possible to get different stats about the memory usage by: X Server, Activities, System process, etc. 4) Logviewer, an activity?, a shell view?, a separate gtk program ? The above points are just ideas, it will be good to discuss about the features required and patterns designs, all sugar/activities developer have been used the current developer console more than once and maybe it can help with some feedback in order improve it. thanks.
