How to make another view like Applications

[Amey Kshirsagar]

I am trying to build a platform maintenance console using Open Platform but I am not able to add another view to top level view along with Applications & Users.
Can I get a short explanation of how to do that??

Thanks

Hi @ameykshirsagar,
you want to add a new item into the navigation?

Here you can add your new item:
https://github.com/totaljs/openplatform/blob/master/views/index.html#L33

And here you can create routing:
https://github.com/totaljs/openplatform/blob/master/views/index.html#L79

BTW: but I don't know whether you understand. Create a console as application for OpenPlatform, here is example: https://github.com/totaljs/openplatform-application.

Or try to create realtime-chat like this: https://github.com/fokinko/openplatform-sample-chat

Thank you!

Hi @petersirka
What openplatform is doing is great but I was expecting to add a top level entity along with Applications that can create different applications like entities. I got that I can create console out of Application. But I needed another way of adding different kinds of Applications
Your suggestion worked for me though.
I shall close this issue right away.
Thank you for your guidance.
