Editable Categories Panel #327

Open Jordan141 opened 3 years ago

Jordan141 commented 3 years ago

fixes #180, #303, #304

The PR will create

An admin panel
Allow categories to be edited by this admin panel
Validate new category
Create a new checksum for the new category image (should happen automatically)

Each new category will require three things:

A key
An image
A display value

Needs code from #324

also needs category icons for algorithms and machine learning @michaelKurowski

I also need to create a frontend layout for the actual category editing, unless you want to take care of that @michaelKurowski

Do we need whole admin panel just for this functionality? @Jordan141 It's another page for us to maintain and QA every time.

Edit: Ah I see it was in a ticket. I'm afraid that it might be a bit complex tho. Should we really do it before release?

We don't really need a panel and it doesn't have to look pretty as it's just for admins. I'm creating a panel component in case we come up with something else that would require it. Scalability.

I guess that you can reuse a lot of edit-article logic, as category is essentialy a picture and title

If you'd prefer it, I can remove the panel and focus on editing categories.
