- It avoids confusion with two separate app sections in a single page. The sections/pages can be better titled. - In future, we can style the apps page (with more status display) differently from apps-add page (with more search and featured apps). - Move page specific parts into individual pages instead of in the common template cards.html. - Add special message when there are no apps enabled and when there are no more apps to enable. - Drop show_disabled flag in cards template that is not needed anymore. Tests: - Unit tests work. - Functional tests work on bepasty when starting with uninstalled, disabled, or enabled states. - Apps page shows special message when there are no apps enabled. It is centered. - Apps page shows 'Add new app' button with icon. Clicking it takes us to apps-add page. - Apps page does not have disabled apps list (even hidden). - Disabled and uninstalled apps are not shown on apps page. - Apps-add page shows special message when there are no more apps to be installed or enabled (test by altering view code to have empty list of apps). - Apps-add page shows list of apps that are disabled or uninstalled but not enabled apps. It shows a title 'Add New App'. Reviewed-by: James Valleroy <jvalleroy@mailbox.org>
FreedomBox Service (Plinth)
The core functionality and web front-end of FreedomBox.
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
This module, called FreedomBox Service and also know as Plinth, is the core functionality and web interface to the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking. It also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about FreedomBox Service (Plinth) on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.
Getting Started
To have a running FreedomBox, first install Debian (Buster or higher) on a clean machine. Then run:
$ sudo apt install freedombox
Full instructions are available on FreedomBox Manual's QuickStart page.
