Work in Progress

Welcome to the powerdns-webui wiki!

Right now, the project is very much work in progress. I have a long list of things I want to add, so the code will undergo a lot of change. I'm basically going down the list of all the PowerDNS RestAPI calls and trying to include everything.

The basic paradigm of the UI will remain, probably, but the underlying code will change.

I've never written a single-page Javascript/RestAPI webapp before, and I needed a simple data browser for my PowerDNS, so I took it as a learning opportunity. As such its been very useful. In the past I've done a lot of more traditional client-server (CGI) based webapps, which used Javascript in a supporting role (validation, etc), so I wanted to get a feel for the differences - relative strengths / weaknesses and get a feel for which to choose in which scenarios.

In this respect it's already been a really useful exercise.
