Accepting new contributors and future of project? #39

I just stumbled across this project after trying to find a way to automatically generate UI from a PowerShell module. The goals of this project match mine 100%, so I would be definitely interested in contributing.

But here are some questions to probe the project state:

  1. The project looks stale at the moment, is there work being done elsewhere or to a similar project?
  2. Is the an updated roadmap? Or are the goals outlined in the video from PSConf.eu 2017 still current/relevant? For example:
    • moving to using vue.js instead of Angularjs?
    • moving from c# to a PowerShell Module (to make it easier for PS users to contribute etc.)

It looks like @daviwil is pretty busy with other projects, and maybe a poor uptake in contributors is the reason for the slowdown in activity here.

Anyway let me know either way, reading about the project and watching the PSConf.eu video sparked a lot of interest as I am an avid PowerShell fan especially now with the official PowerShell Core (v6.0.0) being released on the 20th Jan 2018.

I had plans to contribute as well, I've been finishing my senior year at my university and low on time.

I had suggested using vue.js since it's much easier for anyone to pick up compared to larger frameworks like Angular. I had been waiting for an official TS template but it looks like you may have to brew your own or use some of the community projects. I've been watching this thread. https://github.com/vuejs/vue-cli/issues/263

I personally liked using c# for this module. If you know large JS framework like angular, chances are you know how to make ASP.net apps.

I'm interested in this, too. It seems Powershell Universal Dashboard has filled some needs here but its not a completely open source project.

@rjmholt on the PowerShell team expressed interest in this. If you guys need any support from my team, let me know. Would love to see this project get kick started again!
