Aikau Dashlets | SkyVault Documentation

You are here

The Share web application has a special page called Dashboard, which contains windows of content called Dashlets. Currently most of these Dashlets are Spring Surf Dashlets, but they will eventually be converted to Aikau Dashlets.

Extension Point	Aikau Dashlets
Architecture Information	Share Architecture.
Description	The preferred new way of adding custom Share Dashlets is via the new Aikau UI development framework. A Dashlet is defined via a Surf Web Script and the layout of the Dashlet is defined with JSON in the controller. Aikau Dashlet Web Scripts are stored in the SkyVault/web-extension/site-webscripts/... directory. TODO
