SDL Web DXA: A Vision for Modules
0 likes197 views
This document discusses challenges with configuring the DXA digital experience platform and proposes principles and deliverables to address them. It outlines three principles for module configuration: that it should be discoverable, contributable, and manageable. This includes making all modules and their settings visible and searchable, supporting contribution to modules through repositories and definitions, and enabling installation and management of modules across environments. The document proposes deliverables like a module overview GUI, blueprint configuration approaches, module definitions, and support/communication around changes to help achieve these configuration principles.

- 3. 3 Configuration Challenges with DXA In the 5 Stages of Tridion Knowledge* What modules are available? What can I configure in a module? In implementations Whats set up in a specific system? I want some parts of DXA, but not all of it In demos Is it supported? Can I see a demo specific to my industrys needs? I want to manage my own favorite example sites * https://prezi.com/fmxykjxu16y_/5-stages-of-grief-with-sdltridion-knowledge/ Action Mihai on a serious project
- 4. 4 Configuration isnt just about configuring modules. Configuration is about discoverability, contributions, and the adoption of modules.
- 5. 3 principles: discoverable, contributable, and manageable
- 6. 6 Principle 1: Discoverable As an implementer, I want to know what I can configure within a given system quickly. This can include: All modules visible from a single screen Settings within 1-2 clicks away Per-Publication settings easily reachable Custom module editors Searchable settings Automatic documentation Example: Chrome settings in 3 tabs Example: Searchable settings in chrome
- 7. 7 Principle 2: Contributable As an implementer or customer, I want to find, learn about, and contribute to individual modules easily. This can include: Example: SDL AppStore (Language Apps) Example: Alchemy Webstore A standard definition Locations to get modules such as Name Description Metadata Code repository Version number Dependencies Author(s) Etc Alchemy Webstore NuGet and Maven SDL Community Partner sites
- 8. 8 Principle 3: Manageable Modules As an implementer I want a way to: Install Deploy Maybe enable/ disable individual modules This should work across DTAP (dev, test, acceptance, and production) in load balance scenarios with multiple Content Delivery environments. Example: Chrome extensions enabled-status toggle
