Hi, I've few questions:

  1. I'm looking for a way to build dashboard using tails. Any idea how I can do that?
  2. Is there a way to set pre-defined theme in tails, example - if I drag and drop a componenet in the tails builder, it's colors and fonts should change to pre-defined settings.
  3. Do you have any roadmap of tails future updates?

Thanks

Hey Geetansh. Thanks for the questions.

  1. You should be able to build a dashboard, just by dropping a 1-column layout and applying the classes 'w-screen h-screen' to the element should make it full width and height. You can design your dashboard inside that element. Here is an example dashboard that I built a little while ago: http://dashboard.devdojo.site/ You can feel free to copy the HTML from this template and paste it into your own 😉
  2. We had a setting similar to this in version 1.0; where you can change the default color style, button border radius, and a few other things and it would change that across the whole project; however, we were using a bunch of data- attributes and it kind of cluttered up the HTML. Our solution in the future is going to be to include dynamic components and elements. Where you can define a block as dynamic and wherever that block is updated it will update in all other areas. We are also going to create dynamic elements, so you will be able to add a button, and then modify that button in one place and have it change in all the others. Let me know if that makes sense.
  3. We have an internal list of features we will be working on and we are currently working on checking our error logs and reports and fixing any browser inconsistencies and bugs. We should be able to wrap up most of the bug fixes in a month or so and then move on to some of our new features. Here's a short list of them below 👇
  • Dynamic components/elements, which I talked about in number 2
  • Right click menu, allowing you to duplicate, delete, and perform other actions on the selected element.
  • Ability to duplicate pages and components
  • Ability to add custom Tailwind config options
  • One button enable tailwind plugins, (typography, forms, etc.)
  • Add dynamic content blocks, where the content inside a component can be retrieved from a Notion page or a DevDojo post.
  • Ability to add your own custom domain for a specific project
  • Add individual elements that can be dragged into the canvas including buttons, videos, images, icons (svgs) etc.
  • Ability to import designs
  • Starter Websites (think of something like Webflow, where you can start a new project from a preset of pages/designs), right now it is basically the blank starter template that every user starts with.

There are quite a few others that we have in mind for the future. Let me know if any of them above stick out to you 👆

And feel free to send over any other suggestions you have. Truly appreciate it 🙏

Is there a Tails-specific forum?
