Modules in Contextualise #103

Closed imthevs closed 3 years ago

imthevs commented 3 years ago

Contextualise can have 'modules'. Features that could be considered 'optional' or 'standalone' could be moved to these modules. Users could optionally download and enable/disable these modules.

For example, the 3D images viewing feature may not be used by a lot of users (speculating here). So this feature could be moved to an optional '3D Module'.

An alternate term you could consider for a 'module' is a 'plugin'.

This will, of course, open up this product to a lot of collaborators who could contribute their own plugins.

@imthevs Hi :) I would love to have a (user-facing) plug-in system for Contextualise. I’m away from my computer at the moment, but I will follow up on this matter with you this weekend. Do you have anything specific in mind?

@imthevs I am reviewing several (user-facing) plug-in approaches for Flask applications and I hope to land on something soon. In the mean-time, if you have any suggestions I'm all ears :)

I don't have anything to add here, I'm afraid. But I'd be very happy to help with user testing.
